After anger about Tsitsipas at the US Open: Toilet breaks should be shorter

According to information from “Reuters”, the stricter rules could be in place before the start of the 2022 season.

“We’re at a point where it’s definitely going to be a big problem,” the source is quoted as saying. “It’s been a problem for a long time. But we’re taking this very seriously now and trying to change it.”

Changes are also not ruled out at the WTA women’s world association. “The WTA is always ready to talk and open to changes if that proves necessary,” said the association.

At the US Open, the topic was a topic of conversation when Tsitsipas took an eight-minute toilet break in the match against British Andy Murray. Not the first time that the French Open finalist left the pitch for a similar length of time.

Criticism from Murray and Zverev

Murray complained heavily and then followed up on “Twitter”. “Fact of the day. It takes Stefanos Tsitipas twice as long to go to the bathroom as it takes Jeff Bazos to fly into space. Interesting,” wrote the former tournament winner.
Olympic champion Alexander Zverev also criticized. “It happens in every game, it’s not normal. Against me and Novak Djokovic at the French Open, in Hamburg against Filip Krajinovic, then again against me in Cincinnati and now against Andy Murray in New York,” said the Hamburger in the ” Image”.
Tsitsipas, on the other hand, received support from world number one Novak Djokovic. “I’m with Stefanos. I think he has broken no rules, I support him. The rule is not clear. Of course, you can argue that everything is relative, everyone sees it differently,” said the Serb.
