Tiafoe Criticizes Tennis Spectator Guidelines and Wants to Shake the Stadium

He compared tennis to other sports. “Imagine you go to a basketball game and aren’t allowed to say anything,” the American criticized the strict guidelines for spectators during a tennis match at the time.

Currently, spectators have to wait until the first three games of a game are over to enter and exit the stadium seats if they are not there when the game starts.

But Tiafoe’s demands would likely be met with disapproval – especially at tournaments like Wimbledon, where tradition is everything.

At the US Open, on the other hand, such a change in the rules could be easier to enforce.

And Tiafoe knows fans are there at Flushing Meadows to experience a different kind of atmosphere – one he’s keen to soak up.

“New Yorkers love good entertainment. Everyone is enthusiastic about tennis. The energy is special. Some people are made for it. Others are not. But I have the feeling that I can make the stadium shake,” said the American.
