The words of Craig Tiley, announcing that the women's draw of the Australian Open 2027 could feature women's matches of five sets, continue to generate much debate days later. It is inevitable, above all, to ask them, the protagonists. At the Tennis Channel table this week, they had Iva Jovic, who gave a brave response on the topic.

"Regarding the proposal for women to start playing five sets, if that is the final decision, I accept it. I feel very fit and I like physical challenges. It would give more time to find solutions during the match, so I do not oppose it at all," replied the 18-year-old American.
