Tsitsipas admits long-hidden admiration for Nadal

Paris, May 24 (UNI) In a heartfelt admission on the sidelines of the French Open, Greek tennis star Stefanos Tsitsipas revealed he had always admired Rafael Nadal but never publicly acknowledged it — until now.
Tsitsipas said he always talked about Roger Federer as the person he admired, but he now feels it was a bit of both Federer and Nadal. He never admitted it was Nadal too, because he felt his game was closer to Federer’s.
After Nadal's retirement, the younger generation is increasingly opening up about the Spaniard's impact — and Tsitsipas is no exception. The Greek star even mused that with a two-handed backhand like Nadal’s, he might have had a chance at emulating the 14-time Roland-Garros champion’s dominance.
