ATP – Rolex Paris Masters > Benoît Maylin: “Give me fast courts! Stop with this homogenization of courts, you have to show that you have the ability to adapt”

While Carlos Alcaraz, beaten in the round of 16 by Ugo Humbert, criticized the speed of the court at Bercy, journalist Benoît Maylin particularly appreciated the choice of the French Masters 1000.

“Give me some quick courts!” Indoor Tennis should always be played on a fast surface. Stop with this homogenization of the courts, you have to show that you have the ability to adapt. It's still the same speed with players sending you cartridges for 18 hours. In Turin for the Masters, it will not at all be the same court as at Bercy. It's a fairly quick short but not that fast. We should have the possibility since it's the masters tournament to have surface changes to see if the guys can adapt. That's the advantage of tennis, it's saying that you can play on any type of surface and show that you have the ability to adapt, to modify your game to succeed in winning. That's what makes tennis so attractive. »
