After his change of outfit, Roger Federer likes to appear in civilian clothes for media events, even after the smooth three-set victory against Daniel Evans in the third round of the US Open 2019. Already on the court, since of course still in work clothes, the five-time New York champion indicated that of course he had an advantage over his opponent. After all, the Swiss player was allowed to play their second game under a closed roof on Wednesday, and Evans was only able to play one day later due to the rain.

"Yes, you can of course argue that the game plan did not favor Danny," said Federer in the press conference. "But it is fundamentally not fair that I can play my match under the roof, finish it, sit back, relax the next day while he has to play a three or four hour match against Pouille." But that's the way it is Tennis sports: entertainment. The show must go on.
Determine the TV stations
However, the 20-time major winner has no understanding for the assumption that he would dictate his schedule to the organizers. He would be asked about his preferences, but that does not mean: "Roger demands, Roger gets it." He had heard this crap too often. "I'm tired of hearing that I'm supposed to control everything. The tournament organizers and the TV stations do that. "
The players could only voice their opinion. And they would too. "But I will also go to the square if they set me up at four in the morning."
