The seventh racket of the world Andrei Rublev shared his opinion on the holding of the ATP 500 tournament in Rotterdam.

Earlier, the Russian tennis player defeated Marton Fucovich (6:4, 6:3) and advanced to the semifinals. The last match is played without spectators due to the curfew in the Netherlands.

“I hate it. Late matches without spectators… What time did I get on the court? At ten something23:00 Moscow time – approx. SE)? What time do I play tomorrow? At 19:30 (21:30 Moscow time – approx. SE)? And if the match will be three-set? I wish we played at least 17 (19:00 Moscow time – note SE). Why at 19:30? We only have two matches. (Sighs) Lord… (Laughs)”, — quotes the words of the tennis player Twitter account AnnaK_4ever.
