Watch out world! Swiatek, Alcaraz, and Djokovic dominate their Olympic matches - but is the doubles entry rule a bit fishy?
The Paris Olympics tennis competition kicked off in spectacular fashion with heavyweights Iga Swiatek, Carlos Alcaraz, and Novak Djokovic storming through their first matches. Under the closed roofs of the prestigious Roland Garros, the excitement was palpable, as fans gathered to witness their favorite players battling it out on French soil. Swiatek showcased her incredible skills, asserting her dominance against her opponent. Meanwhile, Alcaraz, with his youthful exuberance, wowed the audience, reminding them why he’s touted as one of tennis's future stars.
However, it wasn't all breezy as Djokovic, despite his emphatic victory over Matthew Ebden – who he easily defeated 6-0, 6-1 in under an hour – had some critiques for the Olympic governing rules. The Serbian superstar believes it’s downright ‘illogical’ that a dedicated doubles player can slip into the singles bracket, potentially leading to mismatched contests. While Djokovic had to break a sweat, he was also engaged in heavy thoughts about how these rules reflect on the sporting event as a whole, which should showcase the best of the best.
