After the tournament in China, a large number of players and experts decided to rebel against this schedule, stressing that it is exhausting and too difficult for everyone who performs.

Boris Becker and Andrea Petkovic commented on the conditions in China, pointing out that a large number of tennis players decided to quit earlier, while many also decided to quit during the tournament.

The famous tennis player believes that a large number of players were at the at the limit of their strength and faced serious obstacles.

Apart from the fact that the Shanghai champions Alcaraz, Draper and Tsitsipas didnt even arrive, there were withdrawals during the tournament Ive never seen before. Sinner, Moutet, Ruud, Goffin, Wu, Medvedev and Atmane all cancelled during the tournament. Even Zverev complained at the beginning. Taylor Fritz was at the limit he was dead, at the limit of his strength.- she said, as quoted by Tennis Up To Date.

Her opinion is shared by Boris Becker, who believes that something needs to be changed because a large number of tennis players have to perform in this period of the year, even though they are exhausted and perform with their last atoms of strength.

Were now in mid-October, talking about so many tournaments and obligations that players simply have to perform, he said.

Many are at the end of their limit or even beyond it.

Top players and problems

Andrea Petkovic indicated that now the European part of the season begins, followed by the Six Kings Slam in Riyadh. November brings us the ATP finals in Turin, which shows that the season for the top players is still not over.

Petkovic is worried, considering that most of the players are at their limit and are probably draining their last atoms of strength to be able to perform on court.

Although most are protesting against the latest developments on the tennis scene, it is not so realistic that there will really be changes, but tennis governing bodies must understand how much this is damaging the image of the sport.
