Stefanos Tsitsipas said he had 'no regrets and no tears' after seeing Novak Djokovic overturn a two-set deficit to win the French Open

Stefanos Tsitsipas said he had “no regrets and no tears” after seeing Novak Djokovic overturn a two-set deficit to win the French Open on Sunday.He is now just one major away from equalling the all-time record of 20, jointly held by Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal.

Tsitsipas, 22, has time on his side and is widely seen as the natural heir to the sport’s ‘Big Three’ who are all well into their thirties. “I don’t think I have regrets. Could have easily cried, but I see no reason for me crying because I tried everything. I couldn’t come up with anything better,” he admitted.

Playing in his first Slam final, Tsitsipas knows his time will come but admits he has lessons to learn from the likes of Djokovic who he described as “an inspiration”. “What I learned today is that no matter what, in order for the match to be finished, you have to win three sets and not two,” he said.
