# Tennis: American Coco Gauff called for shorter seasons, saying it was “impossible” to play more than she already does, after Poland’s Iga Swiatek also hit out at the number of tournaments. They were speaking at the China Open, where five players retired injured from matches on Monday. Gauff weighed in after top seed Swiatek said yesterday she may skip mandatory tournaments to protect her health. The amount of matches in the men’s and women’s tennis calendar has been a major talking point in recent years.
