It's a shame that she's essentially sabotaging her own progress - and very potentially her entire career - just for this reason.
This is assuming that she doesn't have a legitimate medical reason for not getting vaccinated - which it seems is the case.

Not the main point but really lazy journalism from everyone reporting on this, it cannot be that hard to find out the vaccination requirements for a major venue in a major city. Their number and email are available on their website.
Anyway, if vaccination is not a requirement to enter, forget Novak, the rest of that venue is packed like sardines and maskless, good luck to them all.

Nadal has tested positive. His AO campaign now in doubt.

He said he was going to see how his body reacted after Abu Dhabi, but this early C19 result should not affect him in respect to traveling. He should be over it in a week or two, and then he could travel, provided he is over the disease. I gather his issue would be how to train these next few weeks.
But here it could be. The first Slam in two decades without Novak, Rafa, Roger and Serena. Just to get us used to them.

Did he mention how he's feeling? Any symptoms?

He only said he tested positive in the PCR test given to him by the Spanish govt upon entry to the country.

In his statement he said he has been having some "unpleasant moments."

Note that they seem to have also had a photo taken while masked just to make it look good (last photo in the article).

You see, I would give Vyklyantseva a break. It is not her fault that the sole vaccine available in her country has not been validated. Show your proof of vaccination, get PCR tested. But she is definitely not against vaccination.

Seriously, Russia only has one vaccinate approved and it hasn't been verified? Can people get the shot in a different country, if they have the means? Is that allowed?

I don't know. I know China only uses their vaccine, but I have no idea what the Russian Govt has set up.
