It is no secret that Stefanos Tsitsipas adored Roger Federer most out of the Big three. In London, he not only experienced live the “farewell” of the Swiss tennis legend but was also for three days on the same team with him at the Laver Cup, which the European team lost for the first time.
This adoration could not have become more evident than in a photo the 24-year-old tennis star shared on social media of himself lying on his bed next to the racket signed by Roger Federer at the Laver Cup. He will keep it… a talisman it seems.

“I miss Roger so much. I would love to see him back on tour. That’s why when I started playing I wanted to backhand with one hand. That’s the reason I chased the dream of a professional career in tennis,” said Tsitsipas a few days ago, while a few days later he struck again with a photo on Instagram, which he wrote: ” He was winning Grand Slams before iPhones were discovered. What a role model! ».
