Andy Roddick really likes what Iga Swiatek has done recently that Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner failed to do
Tennis has a scheduling problem. That much is abundant.
After all, these are top-level athletes forced to perform incredible feats of physical and mental fortitude. Naturally, this is bound to have adverse effects eventually.
However, as is the case with almost all other sports, like football, rugby, basketball and more, there is a viable off-season that allows these supreme specimens to recharge.
Tennis players are barely afforded that luxury, with December as the only month where rest is permitted. Other than that, there is always a tournament to play.
Andy Roddick speaks about tennis’ scheduling problem
Speaking on the Served with Andy Roddick podcast, the former world number one spoke openly about tennis’ scheduling problem, which many top players have touched on.
And, one of the biggest commenters on this topic is the women’s world number two, only just knocked off her top-spot perch, with Iga Swiatek complaining about the tennis schedule more than most.
