Simona Halep knocked Caroline Garcia out of the Rogers Cup and didn't pull any punches discussing her feelings for the WTA afterward.

World No. 1 Halep, who swept Garcia, 7-5, 6-1, blasted WTA schedule makers who she believes "always try to put me down." 

Tsitsipas: Amazed, Not Surprised

Rain in Montreal forced Halep to play two matches yesterday.

The top seed was not happy about the fact she will play tomorrow's 1 p.m. semifinal against 15th-seeded Ashleigh Barty after defeating Garcia tonight. 

Asked how she was feeling after her win, Halep replied "definitely not good" before unloading on the WTA suggesting schedule sabotage.

"Because if you look at the schedule, I think I'm the only one person and player who has the worst schedule during the week," Halep told the media in Montreal. "I think this happens almost every tournament. I saw that tomorrow I play at 1:00.

"So I think WTA is a little bit upset with me because they always try to put me down, I can say, in the schedule. And I'm very upset about this. Tomorrow I'm going to go on court and I will try to give my best. I have nothing to lose. It's a semifinal. So I just go there and I try to play."

The Roland Garros champion claims this isn't the first time she's been victimized by the schedule.

"If you check the schedule this tournament, and many other tournaments, you can see what is right and what is not right," Halep said. "My opponent has already six hours at the hotel resting, and I just finished the match and I'm doing now these things.

"I'll be very late again. Yesterday I played two matches. I feel like today I should have played second match in the night, and also tomorrow at 6, not at 1. This is my opinion."

Asked if she has issues with the WTA, Halep replied: "I don't know. You have to ask them. I have no problems with anyone."
