‘I hope they’re going to put them in a different place’
Iga Swiatek has called for the French Open to make changes to the layout of their courts after multiple players were forced to withdraw this week having been injured when tripping over obstacles at the back of the Roland Garros courts.
On Friday, the Turkish player Zeynep Sonmez had been chasing down a lob when she ran into one of the Lacoste advertising boards placed at the back of the court and fell to the floor. After a medical time out, Sonmez, alongside her partner, Tatjana Maria, was forced to retire from her second-round doubles match against Dayana Yastremska and Anhelina Kalinina while trailing 2-0.
