Tsitsipas and Sakkari eye revival at Australia’s United Cup

·

Greek tennis stars Stefanos Tsitsipas and Maria Sakkari are ready to start 2025 with renewed energy, aiming for success at the United Cup in Perth, Western Australia.

While both players have faced challenges in recent months – Tsitsipas dropped out of the Top 10, and Sakkari fell to No. 32 after an injury – they are determined to revitalise their careers in the new season.

Tsitsipas, a two-time Grand Slam runner-up, and Sakkari, a former two-time Grand Slam semi-finalist, have already made their mark at the United Cup, with Greece advancing to the quarters in both 2023 and 2024.

They are set to headline Group C at the 2025 United Cup event, where they will face Spain and Kazakhstan on Saturday, December 28 and Monday, December 30 respectively.
