Spanish tennis player Feliciano López, who is also the director of Masters in Madrid, responded to criticism of the schedule of past competitions.
The first to criticize the schedule of the tournament was his finalist German Alexander Zverev. He was joined by Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas and the first racket in the world Serbian Novak Djokovic.
After all, it’s very difficult to please everyone. We have long been accustomed to the fact that matches end late, that some players, especially on the days of the semifinals, get less time to rest than those who qualified before. But we have obligations to television that affect the schedule. We try to make the schedule as fair as possible, we are working on it, but we take into account the interests of all parties involved in the process,” AS quotes Lopez.
