In a subtle dig to tennis bosses, the Greek star claimed that those in charge needed to make decisions that benefitted the players, instead of putting them through the rigours of more two-week events. “Some people need to try it first to get an understanding and how it is to pull that off. Then they should make decisions based on that,” he added.“I think I really don’t wish them that in the future. I think this is not going to be the first time we see these type of things. If these type of things continue with the same schedule not being adjusted or customised to the needs of the players, we might see more of these things occur in the future.”As well as Alcaraz and Sinner’s withdrawals in Rome, Daniil Medvedev, Jiri Lehecka and Jakub Mensik all retired mid-match in Madrid. Lehecka later joined Alcaraz and Sinner in pulling out of the Italian Open.
