Stefanos Tsitsipas claimed a stunning 2-1 victory over German opponent Jan-Lennard Struff, but not without a moment of confusion. After winning the final point of the third set and the match, Tsitsipas was unaware that the game had concluded and rushed to take a seat in his chair.

It wasn’t until he heard the crowd cheering and saw Struff approaching him to shake hands that he realized he was the winner.
