Stefanos Tsitsipas: "Russian and Belarusian players have done nothing wrong to be automatically defaulted from Wimbledon"

On dealing with conditions in Madrid

- Nothing specific that I did to adjust here. Just tried, came a bit earlier. It's different clay court tennis. It doesn't really feel as much, let's say, doesn't feel much of a clay court tournament because you are dealing mostly with altitude than the clay itself. So that's the ultimate challenge that you have to work on. Swings are different. It's a lot harder to open the court. You know, you're just dealing with higher balls and heavier balls. It's more about trying to make that extra ball in the court deep and with a lot of precision.

On Wimbledon’s decision to ban Russian and Belarusian players this year

- Well, it hasn't really been in the players' control of what happened, especially the ones that are from the countries that suffer the most in terms of Wimbledon participation. It's a sensitive topic to talk about. I think it's not nice that they are not allowed to play, I believe. They have done nothing wrong to be, I'd say, automatically defaulted from that competition.
