Stefanos Tsitsipas withdraws from Davis Cup plagued by back injury

·

Stefanos Tsitsipas announced he will miss Greece’s upcoming Davis Cup matches against Serbia due to an injury. As a result, Tsitsipas will not join the Greek team in Belgrade for the World Group I clashes scheduled for September 14 and 15.

Tsitsipas notified the Greek Tennis Federation he will be sidelined due to ongoing back issues after his participation in the US Open.

The Greek player has been a vital asset for the country in recent Davis Cup campaigns, playing a key role in the team’s success and current standing in World Group I. His absence will be a significant loss for Greece as they take on Serbia at the Aleksandar Nikolic Hall.

“The voice of my heart advised me to support the national team once more. However, the voice of my body, in a compelling manner, forbids me to compete in the encounter against Serbia for the Davis Cup… I wish our national team all the best in the tough encounter with Serbia,” Tsitsipas outlined in his announcement.

Despite his disappointment at missing these crucial matches, Tsitsipas expressed his commitment to returning for future national team events, stating, “From my side, I will do my utmost to be able to compete in the next national team obligation, wearing the national emblem once again.”
