The heart of the matter

Recently in Indian Wells, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Fabio Fognini faced off in an epic encounter. The Greek player came out on top in the following match but it took him some effort to do so. After losing the first set at the hands of the Italian, Stefanos made a stunning comeback and turned the course of the match. The final scoreline of the match was 6-2, 3-6, 4-6 in favor of Tsitsipas.

During the match, Fabio Fognini was furious over Stefanos Tsitsipas for receiving coaching advice during the second set. He also rushed to the umpire to claim about this though his claim was short-lived as the umpire did not find anything illegal in this. In the first set, the greek player was lacking composure but he did make a strong return in the second and third sets which ultimately benefitted him and he won the match.

 

Stefanos Tsitsipas and his controversies

This is not the first time that he has been involved in such things. At the recently concluded US Open 2021, he faced Andy Murray in a thrilling 5 set encounter. Before the 5th and final set of the match, Stefanos took so much time in the bathroom. This eventually stopped the momentum of Andy Murray and unfortunately, he lost the match.

Though the player from Britain even complained about this to the umpire there were no laws that could have supported his claim. Eventually, his claim was overturned.

What’s next for Stefanos Tsitsipas?

After winning his match against Fabio Fognini, the Greek player has advanced into the next round of the Indian Wells where he will be facing Alex de Minaur of Australia. Alex pretty comfortably won his match against the Chilean Cristian Garin. It will be interesting to see which player comes out on top in this thrilling encounter.
