He remained for another week except top10 in the ATP world rankings and seems to reconcile with the possibility of, not competing in this year’s ATP Finals. Shortly before he began his effort at the Basel tournament, Stephen Chichipas spoke on Tennis TV and was reported with realism at this year’s ATP Finals. Having stayed at No.11 of the world ranking, the Greek champion stated that his season was full of ups and downs, he said he would try until the end to show the world that he deserves a place in the TAP Finals, but stressing that he might not deserve a match in the tournament, after other tennis players made a better season. To mention that Stefanos Tsichipas will “enter” the Basel tournament, facing the first round of the event with Argentine Francisco Serundolo, No.30 in the world. ATP Finals participates the top 8 of the score. “I am happy with my daily work on the field. I feel like I’m in a transition period of my career. I feel like I’ve improved my game, in many areas I feel like I’m a better player, but I haven’t shown it on the field with my results in recent weeks” the Greek tennis player originally said. “I had some good games, where I fought hard and finally won, but I feel that I have not been able to show my improvements and the way I have evolved. Maybe I should wait a while. Until next season? “I don’t know when he will come. I wish I could decide when, but with these things you don’t know. It can come sometime, it can come gradually, it’s part of the process. If you keep working, putting the details on, they might eventually come.” Pre Tournament Interview! — Tsitsidaely (@titsidaely) Finally, Chichipas was asked about the chances of qualifying to ATP Finals. “I will put it this way: I certainly hope it is part of the plan for the season, but I see what other players have done so far and I compare to my own season, which had up and down. I went well to Monaco, where I won, but after that I didn’t get very good results, to be honest. I don’t know if I deserve a place there, I’ll have to prove some things either here (King), or in Bersey. To show people that maybe I still deserve a spot at ATP Finals. It’ll all come out in the next few weeks. Even if I don’t make it, I’m pleased to be in control of my life and I know what I want to work on, how I want to move on over the next few months. Because I want to start getting better at many things in my life.”
