Stefanos Tsitsipas aims to light up the lawn in Mallorca again.
Reigning Mallorca Championships champion Tsitsipas confirmed he will defend his singles title at the Mallorca Country Club next week.

A year ago, Tsitsipas edged Roberto Bautista Agut 6-4, 3-6, 7-6(2) to capture his maiden grass-court crown in Mallorca.
Next week, Tsitsipas will headline a singles field that is set to feature Ben Shelton and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
Nick Kyrgios is also scheduled to play though his status is uncertain given his withdrawal from Halle this week due to a lingering issue in his surgically-repaired knee.
Australian Open finalist Tsitsipas is also scheduled to play doubles in Mallorca with good buddy Feliciano Lopez, in what is likely Lopez' farewell to the Mallorca tournament.
