The rising Argentine tennis player, Tomas Martin Etcheverry, has been making waves at the 2023 French Open with his impressive performances. The Argentine defeated Japan’s Yoshihito Nishioka 7-6 (8), 6-0, 6-1 on Monday evening. However, it was not just his exceptional skills on the court that caught the attention last night. Etcheverry made an emotional admission about his late sister after his fourth-round win at the 2023 French Open. It surely tugged at the heartstrings of everyone on the court.

Etcheverry’s unbreakable connection with his late sister

Since the tragic passing of Tomas Etcheverry’s sister Magali from breast cancer in 2022, the Argentine star has carried her memory with him both on and off the court. “I always ask my sister for strength. She always gives it to me. At a big moment I said “Magui help me please.” It helped me put an ace.” Etcheverry stated in the post match interview.

However, this isn’t the first instance where the Argentine has dedicated his feat to his late sister. “I am going through a very difficult time personally as a result of my sister’s death, who fought like a lion to the end against cancer. So this win. My dedication is to her, who surely encourages me from heaven,” Etcheverry reportedly said after the biggest win of his career against Aslan Karatsev in the 2022 Tel Aviv Open.
