00:00Well the season is definitely insane and that's not good for all of us as you see so many players

00:06getting injured and also the balls are quite heavy so it's a lot the rules are quite tricky

00:12with mandatory events but I'm still doing that like I'm skipping couple events in order to

00:19protect my body because I struggled a lot last season even though the results were really

00:23consistent but some of the tournaments I were playing playing being completely sick or I've

00:27been really exhausted from over playing so this season we'll try to manage it a little

00:33bit better even though if they're going to find me by the end of the season but it's tricky

00:37to do to do that you know you cannot like skip I don't know 1000 event and then it's really

00:43tricky and I think that's insane what they do it's they I think they just follow their

00:51interests but they're not focusing on protecting all of us.
