With dark clouds bursting in Paris while the French Open is going on, players and fans have been left frustrated. Over the past few days, matches here have seen continuous postponement as the untimely rainfall has caused a scheduling mess at the tournament. As a result, players are forced to play matches on back-to-back days, resulting in great physical stress. One such player is Zizou Bergs, who has seen continuous interruptions of his matches due to rain. As a result, his father took to social media to vent his frustration.

Bergs was involved in his third-round match against Grigor Dimitrov. However, the clouds opened up when Bergs was trailing 6-3, 2-1. Earlier today, Zizou’s father took to Twitter to post a series of Tweets about poor weather at the French Open. In the first Tweet, he said, “The weather is killing @rolandgarros. All outside matches interrupted and restart not before 14:15. Will ZIZOU’s match be played today? Weather forecast is terrible.”

Later, when a tennis coach praised the quality of play at Roland Garros, Bergs’ father took a cheeky dig at the tournament and said, “Indeed. Everybody gets nuts here.”

Subsequently, there was an update that the match between Bergs and Dimitrov was being shifted to Court 7. However, the weather didn’t permit that to happen and Bergs shared a sorry glimpse of the venue that saw heavy rainfall. He further wrote, “Respect for the tennis fans. Court 7 is already being crowded with people that believe the match will be played. I hope with them. Let’s stay positive.”

With his son digging deep at the French Open, Koen Bergs has been quite vocal on social media about his son’s journey at the tournament. Recently, he hit out at the tournament organizers for the poor scheduling of Zizou Bergs’ match.

Zizou Bergs’ father blasts the strange decision of the French Open organizers

The match between Dimitrov and Bergs experienced numerous breaks due to rainfall. This start-stop play didn’t go down well with Bergs’ father, who took to Twitter to express his displeasure.

Koen Bergs revealed, “Strange decision of @rolandgarros to start a match when weather forecast gives only rain. It took almost 1h to get to a score of 3-2 after numerous short breaks. Court was wet, balls heavy & players taking risks (cold) They should have taken an early decision to move the match.”

Eventually, the match was moved to Court Philippe-Chatrier today and will start shortly. Do you feel Bergs can overcome the deficit and cause a shock upset over Dimitrov? Let us know your views in the comments below.
