Stefanos Tsitsipas impressed with Carlos Alcaraz, wants to emulate him

Greek tennis player, Stefanos Tsitsipas relishes the rivalry between him and Carlos. They have met each other three times and the Spaniard has come on top on all three occasions.

Stefanos said, “I think he puts a lot of energy into every single shot. He is quick, he has a good reaction time, he reads the game well. He inspires me a lot. I really want to be like him. I look up to him.”

In his young career, Alcaraz has two Masters titles and considered a proper successor to the “Big 3”. He added, “I know he’s at a young, early stage of his career. I can see him becoming big in a very short time. I’d really like to get to the level he is right now.”

The Greek is in awe of Carlos’ game and his technique and considers him to be one of the best players in the world right now. He said, “I think he’s one of the best players in the world, to be honest. He has proved it with consistent results, thriving in the biggest tournaments. There is nothing you can take away from that.”

Carlos Alcaraz’s knowledge of the game, according to Tsitsipas is very deep. He is reminded of his days as a young ATP player. He said, “It kind of reminds me of my early days when I was introduced to the ATP Tour. I didn’t really know what to expect along the way. I was just playing carelessly, completely free-spirited. It’s a nice thing to see.”
