Carlos Alcaraz hopes to avoid a 3rd-night session match at Roland Garros as he prepares to take on Alexander Zverev in the quarterfinal.
Although the later start did not seem to be a problem for the Spanish teenager as he dispatched Sebastian Korda and Karen Khachanov with ease in his last two matches, Alcaraz thinks, out of fairness, that session times should be evened out among the final eight players.
He said:
"It would be unfair to me. Let's say things clearly. I already played twice on night sessions. I don't say I'm bothered to play it but I have less recuperation time, everything finishes late."
He further added:
“At the very best, you finish at midnight, then you have to go home, to eat dinner, to do physio, try to rest but with the adrenaline... It's more complicated to rest. So, be again, for the third time in a row, playing night session, it wouldn't seem fair to me.
