Stefanos Tsitsipas received heavy criticism from fans for retweeting an anti-feminist message as well as the plagiarism of more quotes.

Tsitsipas built up a reputation of posting various types of tweets with most if not all plagiarized. The Greek always fails to give credit to the original owner of the quote which fans frequently point out. He got under even more fire when he retweeted an anti-feminist message "modern feminism teaches women to hate men".

He was called out by self-declared feminist and tennis reporter Catherine Whitaker Tsitsipas attempted a U-turn by writing:

“Feminism empowers people, which is one of the key reasons young people should get involved. It's a prevalent misperception that feminism is exclusively beneficial to women, and that only women may be feminists. Feminism actually seeks gender equality, not superiority for women."

That would have been fine in itself had he not plagiarized the words once again as they were taken from the We Are Restless blog. Fans were quick to find the original quote.
