The Australian Open and a harsh punishment for Djokovic’s cheaters

At the Grand Slam they don’t forget when the Serbian didn’t want to be vaccinated against covid-19 to play in the tournament and they were afraid of public mistreatment. The plan to avoid it.

Impossible to forget Australian scandal who starred last year Novak Djokovic when trying to prove himself in the Grand Slam without being vaccinated against covid-19. Term arrested and exiled without reviewing his decision, so welcoming him back to this year’s tournament will have a very special flavor. In this context, the organizers they estimate that a public sector is eager to disapprove of it and prepare a strong hand to avoid any bad drink.

Asked about this, tournament director Craig Tiley is dull: “If they disturb the enjoyment of other spectators, they are expelled” he told the Herald Sun newspaper. And he qualified without dismissing the threat: “What I’ve always liked about Melbourne is that the public really like sport and performance, more than anywhere else in Australia in my opinion. I hope people take that into account.”

When will Novak Djokovic perform at Rod Laver Arena?

Apart from the fact that the Australian Open starts on Monday, the world number 5 will see the action at the stadium this Friday in an exhibition match against local Nick Kyrgios. Good time to start smoothing out the rough edges, if there are any left. So far, in his recent allocation to the Adelaide tournament the public was not affected, though it may be different from last year’s conflict center.

Seeded in the tournament, the desire of the Serb is equivalent to the record of 22 Grand Slam titles, currently held by Rafael Nadal. As opposed to his goals, the 35-year-old player alleges some physical discomfort: “My hamstrings gave me trouble last week in Adelaide”, he warned as he cut short his training match against Russian Daniil Medvedev.
