THINGS CAN ONLY GET FETA FOR HUNGRY TSITSIPAS

STEFANOS TSITSIPAS refound his “hunger” to win his first ATP Tour title of the season at the Marseille Open.

The Greek star, 20, admitted he had struggled for motivation after becoming the youngest Grand Slam semi-finalist since 2007 at last month’s Australian Open.

But the No.1 seed bounced back to win his second career title without dropping a set, beating Kazakhstan’s Mikhail Kukushkin (right) 7-5 7-6 in the final.

“Winning titles is what I am working for. It’s the biggest satisfaction and the biggest joy in tennis,” Tsitsipas said.

“I lost the spark (after the Australian Open) and I was frustrated because it felt like I couldn’t find it again. This week I am really happy because I felt this hunger back again. I really hope it stays because there are many good players out there who play for the same prize.” The new world No.11 became the first Greek player to win an ATP World Tour title when he claimed the Stockholm Open in October but suffered early defeats in Sofia and Rotterdam after Melbourne.

At the Delray Beach Open in Florida, Liverpool’s Neal and Ken Skupski lost 7-6 6-4 to Mike and Bob Bryan.

Roger Federer will begin his bid to win his eighth Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championship – and his 100th ATP title – against Philipp Kohlschreiber today.
