After his quarter-finals at the French Open in the tennis classic against Rafael Nadal, world number one Novak Djokovic criticized the start time of the evening games in Paris.
“I think they start too late,” Djokovic said early in the morning. The duel with the Spaniard Nadal only started around 9 p.m. on Tuesday evening and ended at 1.15 a.m. on Wednesday. “But the TV stations decide when to play. They give the money, they decide who plays in the night session, that’s the world we live in,” said the Serb.
The Spaniard ended the quarterfinals with his fourth match point against the world number one and defending champion 6: 2, 4: 6, 6: 2, 7: 6 (7: 4) and will meet number one from Germany, Alexander Zverev, in the semifinals on Friday .
