Alcaraz calls for an end to early night matches in Grand Slam tournaments

The complaint

Carlos Alcaraz is in London to play the Laver Cup, but the subject that dominated his statements in England was not the team tournament.

For the Spaniard, there must be changes in the format of tournament nights and he considers that even ending a game at attacking midfielder -night is already something to question.

The backdrop

The criticism has a concrete origin: at the US Open, Alcaraz starred in the match that ended later in the tournament's history, a negative milestone that reignited the debate on the calendar and start time of night sessions in the Slams.

The present moment

The Laver Cup in London served as the stage for Alcaraz's reinforcement of his position. Although the event is a team competition without the pressure of a Grand Slam, the Spaniard took advantage of media attention to reaffirm his stance on the subject.

The challenge, however, remains: any change to the night sessions of a Grand Slam is up to tournament organizers who deal with broadcast rights, ticketing and the circuit's overall schedule; meanwhile, the voice of one of world tennis' biggest names lends ethical weight to the discussion and puts pressure on the conversation to get off the paper.

Where are we ? Alcaraz has fulfilled his role in setting the tone publicly; the ball is now with Grand Slam organizers, who have not yet announced changes to the format of night sessions.
