Alcaraz agrees with Djokovic in criticizing the Olympic tennis rules

Alcaraz Agrees With Djokovic In Criticizing The Olympic Tennis Rules
@TheTennisLetter

Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz have expressed their dissatisfaction with the Olympic tennis rule that restricts replacement players to those already competing in other events. Following his decisive 6-0, 6-1 victory over doubles specialist Matthew Ebden, Djokovic openly criticized the regulation.

“I really don’t understand the rules. They’re really not logical for me. I don’t think it’s a good image for the sport, to be honest. There were a lot of singles players that have plenty of time, that were alternates, that could have been called to come. This part I don’t get,” Djokovic remarked.

Alcaraz echoed Djokovic’s sentiments, emphasizing the fairness issue inherent in the current rule. “It’s a difficult rule, I guess. Honestly there are a lot of players who deserve to be here and playing here in the Olympic Games. I think it should be different, because the next singles player (in the rankings) deserves to be here if someone withdraws from the tournament,” Alcaraz commented.

Both players’ criticisms highlight a growing concern within the tennis community regarding the suitability of Olympic tennis regulations and their impact on the sport’s image and competitive integrity.
