Stefanos Tsitsipas held his nerves and was clinical in the Stockholm Open semi-final showdown with Emil Ruusuvuori on Saturday. The Greek tennis star, dubbed \u2018Tsetse Fly\u2019 secured a straight-set victory and eased into the final with a 6-2, 6-2 win to maintain his undefeated record at the ATP 250 event.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stefanos Tsitsipas held his nerves and was clinical in the Stockholm Open semi-final showdown with Emil Ruusuvuori on Saturday. The Greek tennis star, dubbed \u2018Tsetse Fly\u2019 secured a straight-set victory and eased into the final with a 6-2, 6-2 win to maintain his undefeated record at the ATP 250 event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Top seed Tsitsipas was dominant throughout the contest and set the tone quite early on. He broke Ruusuvuori\u2019s serve five times in the pair\u2019s maiden tour-level meeting. The 24-year-old’s groundstrokes were consistent and clean as he took only 74 minutes to overpower the Finnish player and wrap up the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the help of that victory, Tsitsipas\u2019 record in the Stockholm event now stands at a remarkable 7-0 and the Greek will certainly hope to make it eight in a row while sealing his second title at the hard-court event when he returns on Sunday for the championship match against Holger Rune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c[It was] a great match from my side, I think I played very well,\u201d said Tsitsipas after his victory. \u201cI was really focused, [it was] one of the matches where I was really into the game and I was able to produce some really good tennis throughout the entire match, pretty much. I was there, I was very daring, I was really going for it, and it worked in my favour.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although this is the first time he is competing in the Stockholm Open since 2018, he showed no signs of unfamiliarity. It must be mentioned it was here in the Swedish capital where he had lifted his very first ATP Tour title and there\u2019s no doubt that the event holds a special place in his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has been ruthless this year as well and has not dropped a set in moving past Maxime Cressy, home favorite Mikael Ymer and Ruusuvuori, and he believes that his past success at the event has helped him find his best level this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ve created some good memories here,\u201d said Tsitsipas. \u201c2018 was the year that I got my first title here. Of course, I love good things in the back of my head. I\u2019ve had some good interactions with the crowd, the people here are lovely, and I\u2019m enjoying the Swedish hospitality.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was Tsitsipas\u2019 56th<\/sup> victory of the season in 2022, the highest among anyone on the Tour. He has already seven tour-level finals this year, the joint-most alongside World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
