Visiting our colleagues from SkySports Italy a few days ago, Stefanos Tsitsipas said a little more about the reasons for his elbow surgery from which he recovered at a phenomenal speed. And according to the Greek player, he had been playing with pain for several years.
“I’ve only been training for a few days. I felt that it was necessary to have the operation because I had felt permanent pain for years while playing, trying to limit the load on this area of my body. I wanted to come back as soon as possible, but without being afraid of relapsing. It’s great to be on the court without pain and to see that I can do any movement, I’m using a muscle that I didn’t even know existed because my injury was preventing me from using it in movement. Now I am faced with a whole new challenge as I realize that I have changed my playstyle and can now play without any limiting factors. It was difficult for me mentally to play for almost two years with this problem. “
