"I think it's quite clear. I don't have to further explain what's going on. It's a way of life, it's a lifestyle. You have it at old country clubs. It's such a traditional surface in Europe," he said.

"I just wish we would see more claycourts in the US," he added.

"I know it's not traditional there. What is it? Grey? Some calls it grey, some green. You see that's also another controversial thing over there. I see grey, some other people see green. But I'd love to see a tournament in the US on the red clay. Absolutely."
