Newly elected to the ATP board alongside Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, New Zealander Marcus Daniell, 45th player in doubles, still finds it hard to believe: “I still have to convince myself that I have equal rights at the table. It will be difficult, on the one hand I will keep my ears open and on the other try to absorb everything like a sponge. “
Supposed to represent mainly doubles players, Daniell would like the council and the authorities in general to become more involved in the protection of the planet: “We have a pretty dirty circuit environment. Not in the sense of how the tournaments go, but the fact that we have to fly to almost every event. And of course, flying is quite harmful to the environment. This is a big problem that I want to address in my mandate. “
