Stefanos Tsitsipas is still trying

Great tennis on Wednesday at "Kasi Live". Dominic Thiem briefly got out of the car at the beginning and led his Adidas brand colleague Stefanos Tsitsipas. And the Greek, who is currently in Patrick Mouratoglou's tennis academy, took a lot of time to answer Christopher Kas' questions. Especially since Tsitsipas is practically not playing tennis at the moment, so it only wants to start again in the coming days.

And so no topic was left untouched. For example the Tsitsipas vlogs, which are very popular on YouTube. These small video productions are like painting for him, explained the governing ATP world champion. And he always needs inspiration. But he had to travel a lot more than he could because of his tight schedule. He has been to the Indian Wells tournament three times - but it wasn't until this year, when the event had to be canceled, that Tsitsipas finally came to visit Los Angeles.

Father Tsitsipas should spend more time with the younger siblings

Probably with his family. Father Apostolos, in particular, almost never left the side of his so successful son. A circumstance in which Stefanos would definitely change something. After all, Mr. Papa should also take care of his younger siblings.

When asked by Kas how it came about that his game looked so effortless, Stefanos Tsitsipas had to stop short. "Roger Federer's game looks effortless - not mine." According to Tsitsipas, his strength lies primarily in the mental area, he wants to get better in situations that demand aggressiveness. And he had to improve his anticipation.

How to expand his language portfolio - and Stefanos Tsitsipas and Christopher Kas agreed in the end: That the former German double specialist will now contact Tsitsipas every day to teach him a few chunks of German. The first small test should take place in a few weeks.
