Tournament director Amelie Mauresmo said on Thursday she regretted the decision made by some players to limit their media obligations ​ahead of the French Open amid growing tensions over prize money and player influence at the Grand Slams, Reuters reported. 

Several leading players are expected to restrict their appearances at Friday and Saturday’s traditional pre-tournament media days to the mandatory 15-minute ​sessions before leaving without conducting any additional interviews, according to French ​media reports, which Mauresmo confirmed.
