United Cup: Tsitsipas and Sakkari send Greece to the quarterfinals

By 4 months ago

Maria Sakkari defeats Leylah Fernandez 7-6 6-3 to secure Team Greece's spot into the United Cup quarter-finals.

Just before this game Tsitsipas defeated Steven Diez with a commanding score of 6-2, 6-3. Notably, Tsitsipas only faced one break point throughout the entire match, which he successfully saved.

Asked about the strong Greek support he received, Tsitsipas said, “Athens, Sydney, it doesn’t make much difference right now. I am out here enjoying playing tennis. There is a lot of blue and white around the stadium, which happen to be my favourite colours.

The Canada vs Greece mixed doubles is a rubber match so Canada has changed their line-up to Stacey instead of Leylah.

And Greece is playing Petros Tsitsipas and Despina Papamichail as they are already through the quarter final against Germany.
