“Helps Me Understand Myself”: Stefanos Tsitsipas Reveals How Social Media Helps Him When He Feels Lost

World No.5 Stefanos Tsitsipas is having an incredible season in 2021 so far. He recently won the Monte Carlo Masters 2021 and ended up as the runner-up of the Barcelona Open 2021. As a result, the Greek player has earned the most ATP points this season with his exceptional performances on the court.

In a recent interview, Stefanos Tsitsipas revealed his experience on social media. He mentioned that it helps him a lot in understanding himself, especially when he feels lost.

“It helps me understand myself. I know that I am a tennis player and that I have to dedicate myself to that, but sometimes I feel lost in this world as if nothing else matters. I need to show and understand other parts of myself. It makes it easier for me to find a greater connection to myself,” said Tsitsipas in the interview. (Translated by Google Translate)

I’d like to have others to contribute more, but I have some that I can make some kind of impact with; help not only in tennis but beyond sports,” added the Greek player.
