Tournament director Amelie Mauresmo, who last year said men's matches had more appeal than women's, stood her ground on Sunday. Her speedy wins so far have made her an unlikely candidate for the night spot as she has been spending barely an hour on court as she bulldozes her way towards a third title in four years at Roland Garros. MAURESMO DEFENDS SCHEDULING Although world number one and defending champion Iga Swiatek defends gender equality, she admitted she did not like playing at night. "I think you can let the women play more in the night sessions because they play a maximum of three sets," Zverev told a press conference that started shortly before 1:30 a.m. It's not good for your body." Zverev is advocating for more women's matches to be scheduled for the late slot as, with their matches being played over the best of three sets instead of best of five for the men, they tend to play fewer hours. "You need to get a massage, an ice bath, talk to the press, go back to the hotel and you don't fall asleep before 4 or 5 a.m. That's not so healthy for the player who wins the match and then has to play again the next day, like now," said the German, who will take part in his third night session on Monday when he plays Grigor Dimitrov in the fourth round.

"When we play five sets, it can go until two in the morning. The start was brought forward to avoid play finishing too late but, on Saturday, Alexander Zverev played his last point against Frances Tiafoe after midnight. This year, one of the eight matches so far scheduled to start at 2030 local time has been a women's game. Now we can just wait until she decided to unveil her partner and father of her babies.In the first two years in Paris, only one women's match got the honours of a night session. Hopefully, we get to know soon that whom is she married to. She has yet not revealed the name of her babies’ father. However, now there is a question regarding her boyfriend or husband after she gave birth to two kids. First, she was openly introduced with her girlfriend, as a Lesbian. Her parents accepted her decision but she could stay away from tennis, only for 3 weeks.Īmelie’s personal life is really complex. After 3 years of hard work she told her parents that “there is also a world outside this tennis so I don’t want to continue this anymore”. When she turned 11, she was well trained and decided to take admission in a Tennis School. Her parents decided to buy her a racket so that she could play. In 1983, when she turned 5, she got interested in tennis and used to watch and inspire from ‘France’s Yannick Noah’ who is still a great player and her best friend, now.Īt that time, Amelie used to copy all of his actions while playing in her garden. She has a brother named Fabien who is an engineer by profession, just like his father.

Neither of her parents was athletic but she made it big in tennis. Her mother was a housewife while her father ‘Francis’ was an engineer in a paint factory. Short Bio: She is the daughter of Francoise and Francis.

That’s why each of her game was full of variety and artistry. She could hit the ball topspin, slice, both sides and on a flat too. As per records, Mauresmo was an unpredictable tennis player, who has the ability to change the entire game in a difficult situation.
