Life on the professional tennis tour might look glamorous from the outside- first-class travel, luxury hotels, and global destinations. However, for those living out of a suitcase week after week, the daily grind isn’t always as picture-perfect as it seems.

A recent episode of the Nothing Major podcast peeled back that polished surface, revealing the often comical and occasionally maddening realities of travel on the European tennis circuit. But it wasn’t the podcast hosts—Sam Querrey, Jack Sock, John Isner, and Steve Johnson—who stole the show. It was WTA star Jessica Pegula.

Jessica Pegula was quick to list down multiple small pet peeves and her comments quickly caught the attention of fans and other tennis stars alike.

“The pillows that are not pillows—they are the equivalent of a paper towel,” commented Pegula.
“There is no ice anywhere. If you ask for ice, they give you one ice cube,” read another one of her comments. “When they lock the AC and you got to go down and force them to unlock it so it'll go below 75°F,” she added.

After Pegula’s hilarious comments, other tennis star such as Taylor Fritz and Victoria Azarenka also joined in the comment thread to list down their irritations. While Taylor Fritz complained about the size of the doors, Azarenka had an issue with shower system.

It was a hilarious thread of comments to say the least and the fans and fellow tennis players seemed to agree on most of their nagging issues with travelling in Europe. Below is the Instagram post on which all the comments were posted.
