Over tennis news, Stefanos Tsitsipas has won the ATP Finals after beating Dominic Thiem in a 3-sets thrilling final at the O2 Arena in London.
Tsitsipas suffered an early setback, losing the opening set to Thiem in tie break. The Greek youngster bounced back after taking a double-break on his way to clinching the 2nd 6-2 in just 29 minutes, forcing a deciding set.
Thiem conceded an early break, but broke back and took 3 games in a row and the momentum swung in his favour, but Tsitsipas, who rediscovered his composure, turned the flow around to beat the Austrian in the final-set tiebreak and crown the season finale on his debut.
By doing so, Tsitsipas becomes the first ever Greek player to win the tournament and the youngest champion since Lleyton Hewitt in 2001.
