Stefanos Tsitsipas and Arthur Fils engaged in a heated exchange after their round of 32 match at the Italian Open 2025 on Sunday, May 11. Arthur Fils outclassed Stefanos Tsitsipas in a fascinating contest to advance to the round of 16 of the competition but it was what happened after the game that attracted the spotlight. The two players had a customary handshake after Arthur Fils won the contest 2-6, 6-4, 6-2 and it was here that the argument broke out. The situation got a bit tense as the two players continued to exchange words and the chair umpire subsequently had to intervene to calm things down. The argument stemmed from a shot by Stefanos Tsitsipas that hit Arthur Fils on his body during the match. Jannik Sinner Returns From Doping Ban to Great Fanfare at Italian Open 2025 (Watch Video).
