De Minaur Speaks Out Against Extended Masters 1000: "Rest Between Matches Isn’t Necessary"

De Minaur Madrid

Alex De Minaur secured his spot in the Madrid Masters 1000 round of 16 this Saturday by defeating Lorenzo Sonego 6-2, 6-3.

The Australian took time during his press conference to address several hot topics, including the 12-day Masters 1000 format:

"Even if we’re not playing every day, this version of the Masters 1000 forces us to stay in competition mode for a long period.

We have to stick to our routines, stay focused on our tennis, and constantly think about what we need to do to perform at our best.

Back-to-back Masters 1000 events in this format keep you in that state for a month. That’s why, for example, I prefer the Monte-Carlo format (one week). Rest between matches isn’t necessary. And you know the tournament will be over in a week."

I propose the following changes to the rules:

1...a walķover will not be a loss. We have no control of player's health. If he or she is entered in a contest we expect them to play.

2...an incomplete match is not a loss. If a player forfeits we pick another match if there are more to choose.

3...this also applies if TT cancels a match. TT will not take hours to decide an outcome.

How about leavin...

It's a shame that so many matches are being canceled. TT ,you are destroying your game ,and thereby killing your app. I don't know how many matches others have had canceled , but I'm at 3 and it's only thursday.

As a long time player and lover of this game , I don't know how much of this I can tolerate. For example I waited hours last night for you to confirm my win and post my points. Every ot...

This week I have used all my formulas and best guesses to try to achieve the high score jimandlori958 set in our last competition. I am two games short because of cancelations and I need all wins to get there.

An impressive win.. Congrats to our winner this week, jimandlori958 and with a score that could not be caught or matched. I don't remember a 56 in a while with our group. Nice to see everyone using the 2 point predictions. Can't win without 'em.
