Stefanos Tsitsipas often claims headlines for his on-court disputes and activities. The greek tennis professional has faced allegations of temper tantrums several times. Though the arguments usually ended with the match and had no lingering feelings. However, this time it’s different.

The issue that emerged at the Wimbledon Championships between Tsitsipas and Nick Kyrgios has taken a whole new form. It’s been months since the incident, but the bitter feelings, instead of fading away have become stronger.

Stefanos Tsitsipas challenges Kyrgios to a rematch

Recently, a clip from his Costa Navarino trip landed the social media platforms and experienced floods of response from fans. As in the video, apart from playing golf and enjoying diving, the Greek can be seen challenging Kyrgios for a rematch. He said, “Mr. Kyrgios please come to Costa Navarino. I’d like a revenge match.”

“And no talking this time,” he added. The Aussie and Tsitsipas engaged in a war of words during the third-round clash at Wimbledon and both received a fine. Though what seems to still bug the former world no.3 is the defeat. He failed to advance to the last 16 of the grass-based Grand Slam, even though he gave a good start to the match.

The eventual finalist of the tournament, at the expense of the first set, claimed victory. Further, around a fortnight prior to this, they locked horns in the Owl Arena of Halle Open. There also Kyrgios took similar a win. He got the better of him in sets of 5-7 6-2 6-4 at the round of 16.

Tsitsipas in the American swing

The 24-year-old, after packing bags from Wimbledon, rejoined the circuit through Canadian Masters. Though unlike his performance in the hard courts season earlier this year, he failed miserably. He faced an opening round defeat in the ATP 1000 event in Montreal.

However, he bounced back pretty quickly and stormed the Cincinnati-based Masters event. The ATP no.6 thrashed high-caliber players such as Daniil Medvedev to book a finals match with Rafael Nadal slayer Borna Coric. But in the finals, he couldn’t outdo Coric’s game and lost his first trophy since Mallorca Open.

Coming to the American Grand Slam Tsitsipas’ record slipped further down. Following a third-round appearance in both the 2020 and 2021 seasons, he fell to a first-round dismissal this year at the US Open.
