The brothers first partnered at the 2021 Australian Open where they received their first team wildcard to the main draw but lost in the first round. The next two tournaments were the 2021 Rotterdam Open and 2021 Open 13 in Marseille, where they entered as main draw wildcards and lost in the second and first round respectively.
Petros made his ATP singles debut as a wildcard as well to the main draw of the event at the Open 13 but lost to Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in the first round in 45 minutes. [1] The misuse of wildcards in the case of the brothers have been brought up by players and fans.[2]
They next partnered at the 2021 Monte-Carlo Masters after receiving a fourth team wildcard to the event. They reached the round of 16 by beating 8th seeded Kevin Krawietz and Horia Tecau. The pair received yet another wildcard for the next Masters 1000 at the 2021 Mutua Madrid Open but lost again in the first round. They served as alternates in a third Masters in a row at the Italian Open but lost for the fourth time in the first round. At the 2021 ATP Lyon Open Petros and Stefanos received the sixth wildcard in doubles but lost the first round match.[3] This was the fifth loss in seven tournaments, in the first round, since the beginning of the year.
The brothers received their second Grand Slam and seventh wildcard for the year at the 2021 Wimbledon Championships losing in the first round. They also received the eight wildcard at the 2021 Hamburg European Open, losing in the first round.
