Surely, this was an unexpected collaboration that turned out to be hilarious. With Khaby residing in Italy, fans might expect some more reaction videos from the Senegalese at the upcoming ATP World Tour Finals.
Coming to Stefanos Tsitsipas, he had a prolific start to the year as he reached the semi-finals at the Australian Open and went on to reach his maiden slam final at Roland Garros. Against Djokovic, the world no.4 was up by two sets before the Serb decided to stage yet another epic comeback of sorts.
Post the French Open defeat, the Greek star struggled to sustain the heat on grass and hard-courts. At SW19, he lost to the American, Frances Tiafoe in straight sets.
