Tsitsipas recruited former coach of Djokovic

Greek newspaper Gazzetta said Tsitsipas found a coach that could help him improve his poor performance on the yard. And Ivanisevic, former Wimbledon Championship 2001, accepted an invitation to work right after Roland Garros closed.

Ivanisevic has led Novak Djokovic for 5 years, helping Serbia player to conquer a series of Grand Slam titles as well as tennis milestones. After the bad start in the 2024 season, Ivanisevic left Djokovic's team. Next, he led the Elena Rybakina female player early this season. However, the two sides soon broke up after the troubles in the yard that Kazakhstan player encountered.

According to Tennis 365, Ivanisevic is interested in bringing Tsitsipas back to the peak. Tsitsipas used to the three worlds, but struggled on the ATP Tour in recent years, to the point of deciding to break up with his father - Mr. Apostolos, to refresh himself. The performance of the Greek player has improved recently, thanks to the new coach Dimitris Chatzinikolaou. After winning the Dubai Championships in March, Tsitsipas has just won tickets to the quarterfinals of Monte Carlo Masters - the forte that he has won three times in the last 4 years.

"12 months is not easy for me ," Tsitsipas said when entering the Masters 1000 event in Monaco this week. "For a long time, I have not had a big victory, the achievement in the Grand Slam is not satisfactory. I feel that the opponent is overwhelming. Obviously, I am not good enough and need to do something to change " According to the 26 -year -old player, thanks to Chatzinikolaou, he has a more appropriate approach, thereby improving the results. "It is a very honest relationship. We completely understand each other and openly in everything. With a few changes that Dimitris makes, I feel more confident when I enter the match ," Tsitsipas said.. The fact that a player uses two coaches at the same time - one main and one - not rare at ATP Tour.
