Tennis is undergoing many different changes. They're making it mandatory for top players to play all the important events, and with new rules, players will face possible suspensions.
I find this decision really stupid, because they've already shortened the schedule for a longer offseason. This means players will have to play a lot of tennis in a shorter period of time. This could lead to a lot more injuries for top players, which will cause major tournaments to suffer.
Not only that, but suspending players for missing tournaments is absolutely stupid. The players should have a choice of the bigger tournaments they choose to play. It seems that right is being taken from them. I think the ATP & WTA cares more about making money than tending to the real needs of the players. Keep in mind, the players have to play long matches, then travel a far distance to play even more. They become mentally and physically worn out.
What's your take on this?
