Novak Djokovic’s decision to participate in the Australian Open with the “medical exemption” granted to him provoked reactions around the world, and Tony Nadal expressed his position on this topic.
“I have to admit that, until this announcement, I thought that the Serb would give up participation or get vaccinated, but instead of that ‘justice’, the Australian authorities led to the Balkans being allowed to come. If there have been any abuses in this process, it must be a matter for the court to determine whether it is a failure of the Australian authorities or a clear intention of the players to circumvent the rules,” Nadal said.
Despite the fact that this news made many happy, there are many who are not satisfied with it. And stormy reactions are expected, considering that the Australian Open has very strict rules.
“Almost six million people lost their lives from this damn virus… I want to think that Novak knows that and that, as a sign of human sensitivity and understanding of others, he will explain the situation. It would be good if Djokovic gave some explanation because I do not believe that there were any irregularities. Of course, he has no obligation to provide such private information, but at the same time, he must be aware that at this moment the world is in a serious health crisis and that globally people are suffering a lot because of everything that is happening. ” Nadal concluded.
