Sometimes ago, Rafael Nadal vented his frustration for the fact that the ATP Finals are never contested on clay. In fact, since the Season Finale is always played on fast courts the Spanish Legend has never managed to win this trophy.
On Sunday, Roger Federer was asked about his view on this topic, and he had a rather direct answer to say
“But I think it’s right and fair that it’s indoors, as well. There is no Masters 1000s on grass. There is one Masters 1000 indoors: Paris. So I feel like indoors also deserves its place, you know.
Could it be switched up to clay once in a while? Yeah, maybe. Could we have more 1000s on grass? Yeah, we could have that, too.
Could we have less on clay, more on hard courts? Yes, it’s all debatable.
I think it’s not the time of the year for clay, so there you have it. You can do indoor clay, I guess, but that’s a bit silly. ‘But I get his point, and it’s a fair point.”
