Should the five-set format at Grand Slams be changed?

jef7rey4mo ago

🏆🎾YES, WOMEN'S TENNIS NEEDS AN EQUAL-OPPORTUNITY UPGRADE It's the Fairness Principle The chance to come back The equal opportunity to lose 2 sets, recover, rise, and keep battling 💰Same prize money = equal reward ⚖️Best-of-5 = equal opportunity — and makes the 4 Grand Slams special 🎾5️⃣🏆

Good riddance to the primadonna princess Kostyuk... Arrogance got its just reward.

Absolutely not.

I don't think it should be scrapped completely, but I would be in support of having it for only the quarterfinals onwards if it gave women the opportunity to play best-of-five as well

daviescallum429mo ago

No!!! It's what makes the major competitions MAJOR events

george.patten9mo ago

No... I can see the arguments for it, but let's keep a bit of tradition

I actually quite like Nick Kyrgios idea of having five-set matches only be introduced from the quarter-final stages onward at Grand Slams. It would massively help players and probably make the early stages a little more exciting.
