We practised a lot in the last tournaments, also. So we both kind of knew what to expect.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI felt like I was serving quite well today in the important moments. And this surface \u2014 it\u2019s very, very different from all the other surfaces, so it\u2019s very tough to get the right feedback.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd sometimes, you feel like you\u2019re not playing your best tennis, but from outside it seems like you are. And sometimes, it\u2019s also the opposite.<\/p>\n<h2>ATP Tour News<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/jannik-sinner-telling-comment-asked-considered-skipping-madrid-open\"><strong>Jannik Sinner gets honest on his physical state when asked if he considered skipping Madrid Open<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/jannik-sinner-gives-verdict-rising-atp-stars-fonesca-jodar\"><strong>Jannik Sinner gives verdict on four rising ATP stars all from the same \u2018very strong year\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Want more from Tennis365?

It\u2019s a tournament I haven\u2019t played a lot, so it means a lot to me, and happy to be through in two sets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked about the rare challenge of starting a match at 11am, Sinner questioned the scheduling at the Madrid Open.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, quite unusual for me. I don\u2019t know when was the last time when I played at 11,\u201d said the four-time Grand Slam champion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut for me, doesn\u2019t matter what time, I try to do my best. There was a question if me or [Rafael] Jodar plays at 4, but I think it\u2019s right he plays at 4; he finished very, very late [in his previous match].<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut at the same time, I feel like we need to make some adjustments with the scheduling of the day. Two matches from 8 [pm] is very late, even though you have one day in between.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut still, it\u2019s very, very late; you finish at 1:30, and you need to eat, you need to have treatment, so it\u2019s very late. But we try to adapt ourselves, our bodies and minds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom my side, it was a good performance today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sinner will face either Jodar or Vit Kopriva in the last eight in Madrid.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ NEXT: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/carlos-alcaraz-injury-wimbledon-doubts-alex-corretja\">\u2018I\u2019m not sure Carlos Alcaraz will be ready for Wimbledon\u2019, says Spanish tennis legend and expert<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/jannik-sinner-questions-madrid-open-schedule-unusual-comment\">Jannik Sinner calls out Madrid Open organisers as he asks for change after extending win streak<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/\">Tennis365<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jannik Sinner has called for Madrid Open organisers to \u201cmake some adjustments\u201d to the schedule after advancing to the quarter-finals at Caja Magica.
