"Have you seen the center court of Wimbledon like that ever? Ever once? No. Thank you. I've been on the Grand Slams for 20 years, every single year. And I can tell you it's not the same in the other Grand Slams. I don't have the full explanation. What I can say is that this is something we really need to solve, even for the players. You know, you're in a Grand Slam." Finally, the world-renowned coach gave the only explanation he could think of for why important matches in Paris are played in front of largely empty stadiums: "On the center court you have some of the best players in the world, and it's completely empty and there are tickets. The tickets are sold. One explanation that I heard, I don't know if it's true, is that French people are too attached to lunch. From 12 to maybe 4 o'clock. It's empty. And that's a really big problem."
