Tsitsipas comes out in defense of the one-handed backhand.

After his significant victory against Daniil Medvedev at the ATP Doha 2026, Stefanos Tsitsipas has come to the defense of the one-handed backhand, which he believes is gradually disappearing. "I want children to see that in modern tennis the one-handed backhand still exists. I want more kids to start playing with a one-handed backhand. I feel like it's fading a bit. Grigor Dimitrov would agree with me. We have talked about it many times," he stated courtside.
