Imagine the opposite of Frances Tiafoe calling Stefanos Tsitsipas a Greek yogurt what would the reactions be - Tennis fans slam Tiafoe for his remarks at 2022 Laver Cup

By Parag Jain Modified 27 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Stefanos Tsitsipas (L) and Frances Tiafoe The long wait for Team World and their fans finally ended this Sunday as Frances Tiafoe beat Stefanos Tsitsipas 1-6, 7-6(11), 10-8 to give them their first-ever Laver Cup victory. However, Tiafoe's remarks during and after that match have come under fire from fans on Twitter. When play ended on Day 2, it was Bjorn Borg's Europe team that was leading 8-4. With each match holding a three-point value on Day 3, the John Mcenroe-led Team World won its first three matches to wrap up the event 13-8. Another match was scheduled between Taylor Fritz and Casper Ruud, but the result had already been decided so it was eventually canceled. In a press conference after winning the tournament, Tiafoe stirred up controversy by referring to Tsitsipas as "Greek yogurt". "You know, I see Stef across the court and I'm, like, I'm licking my lips playing that guy. I want to win. So, yeah, I'm just happy I got over the line. Yeah, like we just like Greek yogurt, so it was good," Frances Tiafoe said. Even during one of the breaks in the match, the American reportedly used the same term for Tsitsipas while surrounded by his teammates. "I want all of that Greek yogurt," Tiafoe was heard saying.

"Look, Tiafoe played great and Stef got nervous with the big responsability for his team. It was a very close match but he lost in the end. Let's just say the words "daddy" and "greek yoghurt" came from the bench and that's not pretty," a fan tweeted.

I m not going to apologize to Roger but I will say thank you - Frances Tiafoe

Frances Tiafoe and Team World after winning the 2022 Laver Cup In the press conference after winning the 2022 Laver Cup, Frances Tiafoe was also asked if he had apologized to Roger Federer after beating him and his partner Rafael Nadal in the Swiss legend's last career match. The American flat-out refused, but also stated that he would like to thank Federer for everything that he did for tennis. "Absolutely not. I want to see him lit, but I'm not going to apologize to him," Frances Tiafoe said. "He's got a lot to apologize after the last 24 years of beating everybody on the tour. I will say thank you for having me in this amazing event, also say thank you for what he did for the game. He's a class act. Happy to know him, happy to call him friend, happy to call him a colleague, and best wishes in his second act. But I will not apologize."
