Yep, I know Roma is playing today but… this is a terrible look. With an Italian playing… Sabalenka and Garcia’s matches also pretty empty. Not sure if making these tournaments 10 days long was a great idea after all.
"It’s clear as day what is making it inaccessible to many": Tennis fans weigh in amid Rome Open crowds dwindling

The Rome Open this year has seen very poor attendance and mostly it's blamed on the rather crazy ticket prices with many fans complaining about it.
The Rome Open hasn't seen very full stands this year and while that's not a huge surprise, the numbers do seem noticeably lower than last year. Many have pointed out the rather expensive tickets as a probable culprit as to why that is. A few tennis journalists have pointed out that the stands look pretty empty so far with some in the replies suggesting it's the crazy ticket prices:
"The ticket prices for Rome are insane. Everyone keeps trying to make tennis accessible and tried to mess with the format… when it’s clear as day what is making it inaccessible to many."
Another reaction to it was:
"wondered why more people on tt go to madrid than rome then i looked at the ticket prices one thing ab italians they are gonna scam you."
And more:
"It is even more expensive than the early rounds of GS tickets!!"
