Stefanos Tsitsipas appoints Goran Ivanisevic as coach to arrest slide
Stefanos Tsitsipas appointed Goran Ivanisevic as his new coach, as the former world number three looks to resurrect his career after a string of disappointing results at the Grand Slams. Former French Open finalist Tsitsipas suffered a second-round defeat by qualifier Matteo Gigante at Roland Garros on Wednesday, making the 26-year-old Greek player's his earliest departure from Paris since 2018. With two match wins in total in his last four Grand Slams, Tsitsipas has turned to the former coach of Novak Djokovic to turn his fortunes around. 'This exciting collaboration comes just in time for the 2025 grass court season, as the Greek star looks to elevate his performance on one of the most prestigious surfaces in the sport,' read a statement from the Iconico Talent Agency, which Tsitsipas posted on Instagram on Thursday. Ivanisevic helped Djokovic claim nine of his 24 Grand Slam titles before leaving his team in March last year and then had a short stint with Elena Rybakina this 2025 season.

Wimbledon will begin on June 30.
