Thanks for your help. I tried the following adding a qvboxlayout but it
didn't improve. I'm not sure I'm using it in a correcdt way though.

class Draw(QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self):
        QMainWindow.__init__(self)
        columnnames = ['...']
        tableWidget = QTableWidget(len(lines), len(columnnames))
        tableWidget.setHorizontalHeaderLabels(columnnames)
        for line in lines:
            newItem1 = QTableWidgetItem(player)
            tableWidget.setItem(nbplayers, 0, newItem1)
            ...
        tableWidget.resizeColumnsToContents()
        tableWidget.resizeRowsToContents()
        # define the action of the menu bar
        exitaction = QAction(QIcon('exit.png'), '&Exit', self)
        exitaction.setShortcut('Ctrl+Q')
        exitaction.setStatusTip('Exit application')
        exitaction.triggered.connect(self.close)
        self.statusBar()
        # define the menu bar
        menubar = self.menuBar()
        filemenu = menubar.addMenu('&Commands')
        filemenu.addAction(exitaction)
        # define the table as central in the window
        layout = QVBoxLayout()
        layout.addWidget(tableWidget)
        self.setCentralWidget(tableWidget)
        self.setWindowTitle('myapp')
        self.setLayout(layout)
        self.show()
