Rennae Stubbs, who is currently coaching Serena Williams, wants to see tennis matches at Grand Slams changed to best-of-four sets
“I think a balance of that could be best of four, if it goes two sets all, we play a 10 point tiebreak,” Stubbs, said on her podcast.
“If we are talking about women’s tennis – and no offence to the women or the men – the women are going to be playing longer matches. I just feel like they will play longer matches because they don’t have the big serves.
“You saw the men’s, they are playing long rallies now as well, but they do have huge serves and win a lot of points on their serve particularly on grass.
“But you are not going to see that quick of a point all of the time, certainly not on clay, where they are playing 40 ball rallies.
Novak Djokovic and Felix Auger-Aliassime contested one of the longest matches in Grand Slam history at this year’s Wimbledon Championships.
