The stage of the Ultimate Tennis Showdown in London has come to an end and has not failed to make the tennis world react. Alex de Minaur affirmed that the check promised to the participants was obviously a great source of motivation.
Jean-François Caujolle, director of the ATP 250 in Marseille, deplores the existence of this type of event: “The UTS and company are warts for the circuit. It's not tennis.
It is absolutely necessary to protect small tournaments from these exhibitions. We cannot fight against so many means, without sporting issues at the end. »
In comments reported by Le Parisien, spectators do not all have the same point of view on this tournament. One said: “It’s really nice. It goes much faster than a normal match.
You don't have to wait for hours to get the result. In the same day, in three hours, we can see four matches and eight different players. »
Another spectator, a tennis enthusiast and former College Tennis player, is more doubtful: “There are advantages and disadvantages.
Me, I have the impression that it doesn't play very seriously. I saw a lot of unforced errors, and it was a lot of fun. It's not the same sport. It wasn't really tennis. »
