Australian Open'I've told you before!' — Umpire gives stunned Tsitsipas coaching violation3 HOURS AGO But there was an amusing moment on match point when Tsitsipas did not realise that he had clinched victory and walked to the other side of the court ready for another point. «He didn't even realise that he had match point,» Wilander said in the Eurosport Cube. «That is so typical of Stefanos Tsitsipas.
»He had a 10-minute toilet break at the US Open and didn't realise how long he took. I don't think he would ever get coaching when he goes in there because I don't think he knows where his phone is! «He really is a complete dreamer. A couple of times we have seen at this tournament where he doesn't know what the score is, he doesn't know that there is a changeover.
»I love it. I think it is so refreshing. To be so free, in a way, but to still care so much.
