Stefanos Tsitsipas won the 2023 European Open Antwerp doubles trophy with his brother, and as you might imagine, it's a significant moment for him.
Stefanos Tsitsipas often spoke about his enjoyment when he was on the court with his brother. Playing with Petros rarely happens for Tsitsipas, but it's an incredible feeling every time it does.
Now imagine how he must have felt when they finally captured a trophy together in Antwerp on Sunday. It was an amazing moment for Tsitsipas and the way he spoke about it after certainly confirms that.
He called the experience 'one of the most important moments' of his career which shows how much it meant to him.
There are certainly a lot of emotions. I must say that I have played a lot of tournaments in my life, I have won a lot of titles, and I have great memories. But this one struck me in a different way, and I can say with great confidence that it is probably one of the most emotional and important moments of my career, even more than the singles titles.
Tsitsipas shares a very close bond with all of his siblings especially Petros, who is closest to him in age. Being able to share the court with him is something he dreamed of and winning a trophy is just the icing on the cake.
Being able to win with my brother is unimaginable. We were little kids running around hitting tennis balls and it would never have occurred to us that we would have the opportunity to play ATP 250, 500 or 1000.
I would like to thank Petros and everyone who made this possible. We have come a long way and I really hope we can continue to do so. And that we can support each other in our own way and make this journey a dream.
