Although he was not the clear favorite for his party, Jack Draper surpassed Stefanos Tsitsipas in the 2024 ATP Cincinnati. After achieving this great result, the British tennis player commented on the speed of the courts, which are extremely fast as seen on TV, and barely allow any exchanges beyond five shots.

"Since I returned from the Olympics, I haven't found my best tennis, but I've been trying to find a way, and today I've shown my grit and determination to move forward. Every day I play and have the opportunity to compete again, I feel better. I feel very good physically and I'm looking forward to continuing this way," Jack said to the media after surprising Stefanos Tsitsipas in the tournament's second round, as reported on the official ATP page.

His rivalry with Tsitsipas

"Stefanos is a very tough opponent, so I had to be there on every point and be ready to compete. Losing my service and then coming back in the final three games means the world to me and helps me a lot mentally," Jack confessed, leading the head-to-head with the Greek at 2-0.

About the conditions in Cincinnati

"The courts in Cincinnati are the fastest I've ever played on. I won today's match because of the way I competed, my determination to win. I managed to show it in crucial moments. All players are used to playing on slow courts, where you see the ball on top of you when you receive. There are many mistakes that many players don't usually make. It may not be the best tennis in the world, but seizing opportunities makes the difference," the British player commented on Tennis Channel.
