The journey of the number two seed Stefanos Tsitsipas continues at the Miami Open. The Greek advanced, despite some physical problems, and won with difficulty against the Chilean Christian Garin, a fairly fit tennis player, despite the adverse surface.
Now there is a great chance for Stefanos, who, with the surprise eliminations of Felix Auger Aliassime and Tiafoe, has the path paved towards the semifinals. Stefanos found Daniil Medvedev’s side of the draw and then presented himself at the press conference, here are his words: “I tried to persevere as much as possible, it wasn’t easy and here the conditions are totally different from Indian Wells.
I haven’t played many games and this last match was really hard for me. In Indian Wells I faced a very tough match against Thompson but I also had a shoulder problem which slowed me down. I’m happy to have gone on the field and have shown a good level.
I was able to use my backhand to the fullest and delivered a very good level despite not too long rallies. I wanted to shorten it even more, but in the end it’s okay”.

The Greek then clarified his physical problems by explaining: “I’m much better than in Indian Wells and I’m happy that I feel less and less pain.
I want to continue on this…
