Tsitsipas triumphs through to third round of Australian open 

·

Last night, Stefanos Tsitsipas defeated Jordan Thompson in an adrenaline pumping tennis match during the Australian Open.

The Greek tennis star’s battle against Australian tennis star Jordan Thompson lead to a win of 4-6, 7-6(6), 6-2, 7-6(4).

The Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) described that the match between the two was a three-hour and 36-minute triumph.

“At this very moment, I only remember the last point, the way it finished,” Tsitsipas said in an on-court interview.

 “The adrenaline and the rush that I got out of this match was insane tonight. You live for these kinds of matches. 

“The intensity was there. We were both able to peak in terms of our tennis at some point during the match. Jordan was fighting. I was serving for the match, he had an incredible comeback.”

The 25-year-old Greek is now set to go head to head against Luca Van Assche for the third round of the Australian Open in Melbourne.
