On Saturday afternoon (10/10) Stefanos Tsitsipas celebrated a big and decisive victory over Luciano Darderi, with the Greek tennis player prevailing 2-0 in sets (6-3, 6-4) over the Italian after 1 hour and 17 minutes of play and advance to the round of 32 at the Rolex Shanghai Masters!
The 28-year-old champion’s run in the 1000-level tournament in China has allowed him to climb the world rankings and gain several significant spots.
Specifically, before the Shanghai tournament, Stefanos was ranked No. 43 in the world, but now, following his victories in the first two rounds of the tournament, he is ranked No. 38 in the ATP rankings!
In fact, against Taylor Firth, he will have the opportunity not only to advance to the round of 16 at the Shanghai Masters, but also to “skyrocket”
