La Fédération polonaise de tennis dément un retour massif de billets pour la rencontre de Billie Jean King Cup sans Swiatek

La Fédération polonaise de tennis a rejeté les allégations faisant état de retours massifs de billets avant les qualifications de la Pologne pour la Billie Jean King Cup contre l'Ukraine à Gliwice, les 10 et 11 avril. L'entraîneur et analyste Lech Sidor avait suggéré que les fans se désintéressaient de l'événement en raison de l'absence d'Iga Swiatek. La fédération insiste sur le fait qu'une seule demande de remboursement a été effectuée la semaine dernière.

L'équipe polonaise de Billie Jean King Cup affronte l'Ukraine sans la sextuple championne du Grand Chelem Iga Swiatek, dont l'absence a été confirmée samedi dernier. La rencontre à Gliwice devait susciter une fierté nationale, mais le retrait de Swiatek a suscité des interrogations sur l'intérêt du public à la PreZero Arena. Un concert annulé sur place avait déjà compliqué les préparatifs, selon les commentaires de Sidor sur la chaîne YouTube Trzeci Serwis. Il a exprimé ses regrets pour les fans, déclarant : « D'après ce que j'ai compris, les gens rendent leurs billets en masse, essaient de les vendre ailleurs ou vont simplement les jeter ».
