Jakub Mensik labels French Open heat ‘insane’ after collapsing at end of five-set win

Czech tennis player Jakub Mensik collapsed on court due to cramps and required a wheelchair to return to the locker room after his grueling 6-3, 2-6, 6-4, 1-6, 7-6 (11) second-round victory over Mariano Navone at the French Open, a match that lasted more than four and a half hours. Mensik criticized the conditions at Roland Garros, calling it 'insane' to compete in intense heat with insufficient time during changeovers to cool down. The incident has drawn attention to player welfare concerns regarding scheduling and heat management at the tournament.
