Following his 6-4, 6-4 win over Ernests Gulbis at the Stockholm Open final, Stefanos Tsitipas became the first Greek tennis player to win an ATP World Tour title.

 

The Greek had earlier lost his previous two finals to Rafael Nadal but was third time lucky to win a maiden ATP tour title.

 

The Greek ranked 16th in the world is the youngest player in the world top 20. Tsitsipas began the year outside the top 100 but is now 16th in the world following a strong 2018.

 

He has already qualified for the ATP Next Gen Finals in Milan next month.
