Greek tennis star Stefanos Tsitsipas recently claimed the title at the Monte Carlo Masters. After defeating Jannik Sinner in the semi-finals and then cruising past Casper Ruud in the finals, Tsitsipas secured his third Masters 1000 title in Monaco.
After winning the tournament, Tsitsipas took a moment to share an appreciation post for the weather outside. In a bid to promote nature conservation, the Greek tennis star urged people to preserve the environment. With a vivid description of nature’s beauty, Tsitsipas hopes to inspire more people to work towards preserving our natural world.
Nature is one of the most beautiful things in the world. The way the leaves change colors in the fall, the sound of waves crashing on the shore, and the beauty of a snow-covered landscape. Let's protect and cherish our planet, and preserve its beauty for generations to come. posted Stefanos Tsitsipas on X.
Tsitsipas’ attempt to promote nature conservation backfired when French ATP star Corentin Moutet responded with a pointed roast.
From a tennis player flying every week to a new country. replied Corentin Moutet on Tsitsipas’ post
Tsitsipas’ newfound love for nature appeared after he acquired his third title in Monaco. Having always played his best tennis here, the Greek ace continued the amazing work and put up a show to remember. Furthermore, with this win, he also moved up in ranking and re-entered the top 10.
Stefanos Tsitsipas continues his win streak on clay, as he now advances to the Barcelona Open
After a historic Monte Carlo win, Stefanos Tsitsipas headed to Barcelona for his next tournament on tour. Having entered as No. 5 Seed, the 25-year-old played his first match yesterday. With only 32 players remaining in the singles event, the Greek ace easily made it past his first opponent.
He defeated Sebastian Ofner in straight sets 6-4, 7-5 as he made his spot in the Round of 16. With the No.1 and No. 2 seeds out of the tournament, it gives Tsitsipas a good chance to win the tournament and continue his win streak on clay. Tsitsipas will now face Spanish star Roberto Carballes Baena.
In addition, Alex de Minaur defeated Rafael Nadal in straight sets as well, whom Tsitsipas had predicted to reach the finals, in the second round. After a tight game, the Barcelona crowd had to bid goodbye to their most successful winner for one last time.
