The rumour is that he had to front up at 9.30 and wait almost the entire day to play 5 points against Fabio Fognini which would have been a factor in the next day running into a 10pm start to an almost 4am finish. Ridiculous really.Timing would have a lot to do with the rest of the world and what time they are awake.
Its the curse of living in Australia and wanting to see live sports.
Want to watch an F1 race? Better be awake between 11am and 5am to catch the start.
Want to watch an NFL match? Best be up at 5am for most games.
Same with Soccer.....
In Australia, we still have to try and accommodate the rest of the worlds schedule, which see late games go into early morning for the international $$$'s.
Not really fair on all those involved. Think of the poor umpires, judges and ball boys/girls - They are 12-15yo's!
