MELBOURNE, Australia — A postmillennial through and through, Stefanos Tsitsipas sounded as excited about doubling his YouTube channel’s followers to more than 30,000 within a few hours — “Oh, my God. !” — as he was about becoming the youngest Grand Slam semifinalist since 2007. Ah, to be 20, emerging as possibly the Next Big Thing in tennis and getting the opportunity to promote your travel vlogs. “Guys,” he urged folks watching the Australian Open on Tuesday in person or on TV, “if you haven’t subscribed, please subscribe.”Lest anyone get the idea that Tsitsipas’s stunning victory over Roger Federer at Melbourne Park was a fluke, he followed it up by beating No. 22-seeded Roberto Bautista Agut of Spain, 7-5, 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (2), to become the first player from Greece to reach the final four at a major tournament.
