Stefanos Tsitsipas left a great impression at the Mutua Madrid Open 2026. The Greek player reached the round of 16 and was just one point away from advancing to the quarterfinals. However, despite his tennis displayed at the Magic Box, Tsitsipas seems to have internal issues within his team. This was evident during one of his training sessions where his father Apostolos was present alongside his mother, Julia Salnikova. In fact, she was giving him instructions before a serve, but the father intervened, asking her to stay quiet and leave their son in peace. This scene reflects the internal turmoil within Tsitsipas's team.
