He's probably scared and lashing out, he likes to pretend he wasn't sick last time, but he was. But he's so exhausting.

Re: C19 and Tennis
COVID-19 positives continue to hit players, including Roland Garros women’s finalist Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova.
“Unfortunately I have some bad news,” the 30-year-old said on Twitter.
“I arrived in Australia on Tuesday and tested positive for COVID-19.”
Said Pavlyuchenkova: “I was fully vaccinated and was preparing for the start of the season in Dubai. But we live in a very difficult and unpredictable time.
“Right now I am in complete isolation, in a special hotel and following all the protocols under the supervision of doctors.”

Kinda seeming like it's something approaching miraculous to have been in Dubai recently and not caught covid.

Re: C19 and Tennis
Poland’s world No.231 Urszula Radwanska was one of the latest players to test positive.
“Unfortunately 2022 doesn’t start good for me,” Radwanska said on Twitter on Saturday.
“Today in Melbourne I tested positive for COVID. Despite the strong symptoms, I hope that I will recover quickly.”

Re: C19 and Tennis
I wonder how the Aussie will handle players that come down with C19 when they are due to play a QF. Or, what happens if the player tests positive before the final.

Re: C19 and Tennis
For the final, for example? That would mean a huge financial loss. They better think it over before the tournament starts.

Re: C19 and Tennis
They could simply not test during the 2nd week. As they say wolves are fed and sheep are safe.

Re: C19 and Tennis
Yeah, I think there's no question the player will have to default and quarantine. I'm sure the tournament has thought it over and has a protocol for every stage of the tournament, although the round of play shouldn't matter. A positive player gets quarantined, bottom line. Right? The circumstances of any positive test are irrelevant, albeit not inconsequential. But it's a pretty small risk.

Re: C19 and Tennis
Thy cynic in me says that they may very well silently not test anyone starting with the quarters or semis.

Re: C19 and Tennis
ESPN L. America (showing ATP cup) is saying that Novak WILL NOT play the Aussie, due to the vaccine mandate.
Quote:
"Djokovic has stated that he is very disappointed with THE WORLD, because you can't force somebody to make these decisions".
If he really said that, that has got to be the most arrogant thing he has ever said. DISAPPOINTED WITH THE WORLD.
Yep, we are not very proud of you either.
(If all this IS TRUE. These are the two commentators broadcasting the Berrettini-Humbert match).

Re: C19 and Tennis
They didn’t cite a source? There were “sources say” rumblings about this on Twitter today. Dude’s not playing.
