While Tsitsipas took the win, Harris proved he belongs back on the biggest stages in tennis. The comeback is officially on! 🔥🎾

Some athletes count trophies, but tennis pro Tom Hands counts water bottle tattoos. 🏆

With an environmental science degree from Drake University and a Master’s in sustainability from the University of Nottingham, you know he isn’t playing around. He takes “reduce, reuse, recycle” to a whole new level by giving his bottle a fresh mark for every single refill. 🌱

He is officially 160 refills deep, and his bottle is starting to look like a sleeve in progress!.
