That's a damn shame, especially given his more recent form.

Especially after such a good RG, having to miss one slam that suits his game so well.
If I were any of the top contenders, I would self isolate too. Imagine coming down with this crap like Wednesday next week.

And Djokovic reportedly didn’t look well during his first-round win. Low energy. ???

This is a really tough one. Actually a lot of players so far are exiting with Covid.

Cilic and Berrettini. Who else have you heard?
(Or is it just players whose names start with MA?)

Maybe I was mistaken that the others has left because of injuries.

Just that the news are coming out very fast. Maybe there were others, or maybe there WILL BE others.

I hope not. I hate Covid. It is scary and it screwed up my 9th grade tennis year when that school tennis year was cancelled. That year of school altogether was a complete mess having to do school online and it being my first year in high school that year.

We might find out who's been hooking up with Berrettini. :) Is it Xinyu Wang? She just withdrew, but don't know why.

Problem is that we have seen the videos. Yesterday somebody posted one of Serena running into Rafa, and surrounded by the other players. So, knowing that the lockers at the AELTC are, let's say, rather intimate, it could spread. Let's hope not, of course, but the new variants are so contagious...

That would be awful. Not sure if players are wearing masks while in the locker rooms , but I doubt it. It doesn't look like any of the fans are wearing them probably because it is outside. I don't know what the restrictions are in England.

No restrictions whatsoever in England.
