An ITF event in Heraklion, Greece was halted after heavy rains flooded the tennis court. The court is named after Stefanos Tsitsipas, but since he is away, his brother Petros Tsitsipas decided to pay a visit to the tennis court and practice in the waterlogged conditions.

Petros had posted a hilarious video of him playing a match on the court with half his legs sunken underwater. Stefanos then reacted to the video and jokingly said it is disrespectful to his court.

“Ok, that is so disrespectful to my court” Tsitsipas posted on Instagram.

Petros Tsitsipas in the above video was fully focused on training and didn’t care about the conditions. He wrote, “Back to the court improving every day, even after a tough match.”

Tsitsipas brothers continue the banter

The banter between the Tsitsipas brothers didn’t end there as Stefanos gave further reactions to his brother’s video on social media.

“I checked with the practice desk. They told me that my brother had not reserved the court.” Tsitsipas wrote on Twitter.
