Tsitsipas leaves ATP FInals with back injury

Stefanos Tsitsipas has swelling in his lower back and it is the reason why he did not finish his match with Denmark’s Holger Rune from the group stage of the ATP Finals in Turin.

At the press conference after the match, the Greek tennis player revealed that the problem had already appeared during the tournament in Shanghai a month ago. However, he reached the semi-finals in Antwerp, Vienna and Paris in recent weeks.
