Sofia Lindqvist on eleven months of a body built for eight

The tour asks for eleven months of a body that was built for eight.

Sofia Lindqvist runs performance for the continental tour. Her job, she says, is to argue with the calendar.

On the body

The tour asks for eleven months of a body that was built for eight.

— Sofia Lindqvist

Eight months is what the physiology supports, in her reading of the data: eight months of competition, three of rebuilding, one of nothing. The tour offers a fortnight in December.

The practice courts at the season's last event.

Nothing, until a top-ten player retires at twenty-six and says why. She thinks that is two seasons away.
