London-rank Aryana Sabalanka Would not want women to go into the best-five-set matches in the women’s tennis Grand Slam tournament-as men play-are afraid of the risks of a high injury.
“Perhaps physically I am one of the strongest people, so perhaps it will benefit me. But I think I am not ready to play five sets,” Sabalenka said after her two sets in Wimbledon on Monday after the first round victory.
“I think it is very high on the woman’s body. I think we are not ready for this amount of tennis. I think it will increase the amount of injuries. So I think it’s not something that I will agree.”
Women play three-three sets in all tournaments. Men play the best five formats in the Grand Slam tournament, and the best of the three.
There is no comprehensive movement for change, but it is a topical talking point – if women’s tennis should go to the best of five in the following stages of the major tournament.

“To see someone, it is astonishing to see a five -hour great tennis,” said Sabalenka. “But I am not really jealous to stay there for five hours as a player. I don’t know how many days they need to recover after that crazy match.”
Number 2-rank Coco goff On Saturday, expressed similar feelings about the best-five sets.
“This will be on my side from just a physicality point of view. But I think it will be a big change for the tour. I think it would be fine how it is, how it is,” the American said.
Sabalanka defeated 194th position Carson Branstine 6-1, 7-5 in 73 minutes on Monday.
