Stefanos Tsitsipas returned to action on the Atp Tour at the 2023 Indian Wells, but it wasn't a winning return for the Greek.
Previously, the world no. 3 lost to Jannik Sinner in Rotterdam, and prior to the 2023 Indian Wells, Tsitsipas revealed that he's still not 100% fit and therefore, he doesn't want to pretend he has any chances to succeed. Regardless, the loss of the second-seeded player already in the second round was a big surprise.
The 24-year-old took on Jordan Thompson from Australia, who came to Indian Wells after his dominant Atp Challenger triumph, and in the first round of the Atp 1000 event, he defended Gael Monfils, who was returning after a seven-month layoff.
Thompson was clearly the better player early on. He had four chances to break the 2023 Australian Open finalist in the first set, but he couldn't use any. The opening set reached a tie-break, and the Australian had...

Whichever combination we select, so we are happy with the depth rather than necessarily picking out one player.”
