The Greek tennis star Seriously Considered Retirement Amid Injury-Plagued 2025 Season
The athlete entered the previous US Open as the 26th seed.
Stefanos Tsitsipas has revealed he pondered ending his career due to severe spinal pain during the season.
The 27-year-old, who has reached a career-high ranking of world number three, was a finalist against Novak Djokovic in the finals of the 2021 French Open and the 2023 Australian Open.
Now ranked as the world's 36th best player after a limited schedule since his second-round departure at the US Open this past summer, he stated that ongoing treatment has begun yielding positive results.
"My greatest anticipation is to observe how my body holds up under regular practice concerning my injury," said Tsitsipas.
"The biggest fear centered on if I could complete a match," he added, noting the injury had troubled him "for the past half a year or more."
"I kept asking, 'Am I able to play another contest without discomfort?'"
"I became truly frightened after the defeat in Flushing Meadows [to Germany's Daniel Altmaier]. I was unable to walk for 48 hours. That's when you start reconsidering the path ahead."
He also reported being content with the present treatment regimen following the completion of an extended period of off-season preparation completely pain-free.
He is scheduled to compete for Greece in the United Cup, where they face Naomi Osaka's Japan and the British team captained by Raducanu. The competition will be held in Perth and Sydney from 2 to 11 January, the week preceding the Australian Open.
"The greatest victory next season is to not have concerns over completing bouts," he stated.
"It is incredibly encouraging to know you had an off-season in good health – I hope it continues. I want to deliver during the upcoming season and for the United Cup.
"The effort is invested. The most important thing is total belief in my ability to get back to where I was. I will try all means to make it happen."
