The length of the season for tennis players is a debate that comes up again and again, due to players' complaints.

Iga Swiatek also spoke out on the subject, during her appearance on the Tennis Insider Club podcast.

She says: "It would be easier if the season lasted 9 months and not 11.

You know, when I stay at home for a long time, I want to go somewhere, but the season is long.

It's hard to be motivated all the time. I think it's impossible, even if you have the highest goals.

You have to get used to this intensity.

So far, I have the impression that everything is going well, but I don't really understand how we got to this point where we have to compete for 11 months.

I have the feeling that a few years ago, everything was simpler.

But when you're in the top 5 and you don't get to play in Beijing, or the Billie Jean King Cup, people are disappointed.

And now, with these rules, it becomes impossible to make these decisions that seem simple."

Yeah. It's ridiculous that there's no off season. Everyone is constantly injured because they have no time to recover

As we move to the end of this month and also closing out the year I am wishing all of those following me a Merry Christmas and a Happy/Healthy New Year.

Let's make that wish for all 2000 plus players hoping for 5 wins each day. Hoping ŵhen we open the results page to see all green, and no red. And especially NO CANCELED matches.

From me and my rotti JAZ, I bid you all good night, and see you in...

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
