Patrick Mouratoglou doesn't give up. And also invites you to the Ultimate Tennis Showdown in his academy near Nice in 2021. The postponement of the French Open by a week suits the coach of Serena Williams: Because the UTS 2021 could offer some top stars the opportunity to get the finishing touches for the second major of the year under very special competition conditions.
First and foremost, this certainly applies to Daniil Medvedev, who is not a fan of the ashes. Medvedev trains from time to time in the Mouratoglou Academy, the Russian competes under the name “The Chessmaster” on May 24th and 25th. Medvedev needed match practice, in Rome there was the next early break against compatriot Aslan Karatsev.
Schwartzman and Fognini call for Medvedev
The appearances of Diego "El Peque" Schwartzman and Fabio "Fogna" Fognini have also been announced. These two players are still involved in tournaments on the ATP Tour this week. Fognini got off to a successful start in Geneva, Schwartzman opened the attack on his second title of the year after Buenos Aires in Lyon on Wednesday.
As at the premiere in 2020, the Ultimate Tennis Showdown will take place again with special rules. There are around four quarters with a limited playing time of a maximum of ten minutes and the possibility of sudden death.
Anyone who wants to follow the show tournament is in good hands with Eurosport. There is the UTS on Tuesday, May 24th, between 7.15pm and 10.15pm, and on Wednesday, May 25th, between 3pm and 6pm.
