Stefanos Tsitsipas, one of the players who agreed to participate in this year's Six Kings Slam, did not end his adventure as expected. In a duel with world number 2, Jannik Sinner, the Greek tennis player did not last long; the 24-year-old settled the match in 76 minutes with a score of 6-2, 6-3.
Tsitsipas wants to return to the top 5, but he faces an extremely difficult task.
In an interview with the media, he shared what is necessary to do if he really wants to get back into shape.
While some speculate about the reasons for his poor form, Tsitsipas emphasizes that the key is a healthy body. If his body does not serve him, it is unlikely that he will be able to return to the top.

The body as a source of frustration
The 27-year-old is clearly frustrated with the same results month after month. It's hard to accept that you're losing when you're giving it your all, but it seems that the biggest source of his frustration is his body.
In fact, having played the sport for years, Tsitsipas admits that he's never played 5-6 matches in a row without his body feeling the effects. Every match brings him some pain, except for a few months this year.
However, he hopes to find a way to solve this problem and get back on track.
