Alcaraz Joins Djokovic in Criticizing Different Balls in Tournaments and Demanding Change

Alcaraz now joined Djokovic’s demand that those responsible take measures to avoid injuries.

“They should do something about it because it’s unbelievable that we’re playing with different balls in three or four tournaments in a row. There are a lot of players who have gotten injured because of it and more will get hurt,” the two-time Grand Prix insinuated. Slam champion.

That cannot be in the interests of competition. “If the ATP wants to have the best players in every tournament, they should change that,” demanded Alcaraz.

Ideally, only one uniform ball should be used. “Every swing should be played with the same ball. We start the year in Australia, then we go to South America and then the USA. And we should play with the same ball everywhere,” said Alcaraz.

“We play on very slow hard courts all year long. And then we come to the final and suddenly we play on the fastest surface all year. I can’t understand that,” said the 20-year-old.

In his second match in Turin, Alcaraz will face Russian Andrey Rublev on Thursday (2:30 p.m. in the live ticker).
