Stefanos Tsitsipas stated, “It’s important. It’s really important because you get to travel all year long and the number one thing that you need is the financial part because not many people have the financial part. It’s really tough when you get to travel so much. I believe it’s the most important thing in your career.”
In addition, Patrick offered his assistance by writing in the caption, “How can we help?” It seems like Mouratoglou wants to help the next generation with financial support so that more fine players can emerge on the tour.
