Stefanos Tsitsipas is considered one of the most talented players to have never won a Grand Slam. The Greek star's best finishes in the Grand Slam events were making it to the final of Roland Garros in 2021 and the Australian Open in 2023. However, he lost to Novak Djokovic on both instances and fell short of winning the majors.

In a recent interview with SDNA, the 29th-ranked ATP star revealed his plans for the near future and wished to win one title desperately at least once in his career. It was not a Grand Slam, but the Davis Cup, which he claimed to love immensely, as he got an opportunity to represent his country in the tournament.

"My mood is to play in the Davis Cup. My love for the Davis Cup is immense. I often tell Petros [Tsitsipas] and my father. A Davis Cup title would probably be more valuable than a Grand Slam. Being able to see our national team win the Davis Cup can fill me up more as a tennis player than a Grand Slam," said Tsitsipas.

Stefanos Tsitsipas' record in the Davis Cup

In the David Cup, the star player has a good win record of 13-3 in his 16 matches. In the Davis Cup 2019, he won all his singles matches but lost the doubles match with Michail Pervolarakis against the Polish duo of Lukasz Kubot and Marcin Matowski.

In 2024, he remained unbeaten in the Davis Cup in both of his matches.
