Dennis Shapovalov was really not in good spirits, Thursday, after his elimination in the second round of Roland Garros.

It must be said that the Canadian, seeded number 9, surely did not expect to come out against the 101st world after a battle of more than five hours.

But Roberto Carballes Baena was the strongest, at least this time, and Shapovalov decided to let off steam at a press conference.

It was the new bullets that took first.

“The ball does not go, it's annoying that we have to be in this situation.

In my opinion, the ball shouldn't be that heavy, and things shouldn't be that difficult, ”he observed.

Nothing crazy about it, he's not the first to complain, we told you about it here.

Why do balls make everyone growl at Roland Garros?

It was then that the criticisms of the Canadian took another turn.

Asked to comment on the differences between Roland Garros and the US Open, from a health point of view, he gave an answer that could not be more cash: "I think they are not doing a good job [at Roland ].

There isn't really a bubble, especially in the second hotel, he said.

There is no bubble!

You can leave the hotel, you can go into town, there is no problem, there is no one to stop you.

It was much better run in New York.

»Not sure that Paire or Mladenovic are of the same opinion.

That's all ?

Well no.

Guy Forget was not going to get away with it.

Before leaving, Shapovalov added a little about the organization of his day.

Because after his marathon match, he had to play doubles quite quickly.

“The organization is awful!

After a 5 hour game I have to play doubles now.

The schedule is really not good, he said.

We're in a Grand Slam, I don't want to sound spoiled rotten, but we expect the tournament to help us play.

They could have planned things better, which is not acceptable.

"

Associated with the Indian Bopanna, he was released in two dry innings by Pospisil and Sock (6-2, 6-2).

A bad day until the end.
