It does not necessarily seem to be decisive how they slept the night before a tournament. What is crucial, is how someone has slept the week before the tournament (\u2026) Sleeping is individual for every person, like it is with a diet or fluid requirement. There are people who drink a lot and those who don\u2019t drink much. Just like there are people who are short sleepers and only need five or four hours of sleep throughout their whole life. And there are late risers, who need about 9 hours of sleep. But you can say that 90% of the people need something between 6 and 9 hours of sleep. (\u2026) I am more of a late riser. Of course, you can also put me at my desk at 8 in the morning. I would survive that. I am just not as productive at 8 am.

In Japan it is completely normal that people sleep at their workplace. That is considered a great honor. There is even a term for that: Inemuri. That means: Sleeping while being present. When someone sleeps at the office that means that person has worked so much \u2013 up to self-sacrifice \u2013 that he or she has to sleep for a while to be operational again.
