Paire postive for virus...

You can play with the virus. He is probably with no symptoms. And since each player plays on opposite side of court there is 6 feet social distancing. Only problem will be doubles. He can't play doubles.

He's been taken out of the draw.And yes he is asymptomatic. BUT dems the rules.

Bummer. Travel all the way across the Atlantic and go home without playing. I hope they reimburse his travel expenses.

I am not surprised. Paire is a party animal. I want to get a beer with him. Even if he has rona.

Not a bad outcome to have such a small sample of positive tests considering the thousands upon tens of thousands of tests they have done so far. Someone was bound to get it eventually.

Thankfully the show will go on.

I'm actually more concerned how the French Open is going to handle their bubble these days.

He had no shot anyway
Glad he is gone

Still have not heard of a single athlete being sick from the virus. A few said cold like symptoms for a day or two.

Dimitrov had serious symptoms but I believe that was how he got it from travelling and then gave it to everyone at the Adria tournament.
Unfortunate but anyway

Apart from that I’m not sure about anyone else

Nishikori has minor symptoms and took 14 days to get negative

Hmm interesting, does not bode well then for NFL if he got hit hard. I was going to say if you're relatively healthy seems you are usually asymptomatic or minor symptoms but not always then.

freddy freeman had a high fever

I am not so sure NBA hasn't had any cases. I think their secret policy was you guys will be fine and that was the initial deal - "do you guys want to do this or not?"

Ty’s fever off the charts. He likes big debbie‘S

I believe the NFL wasn't too bad in regards to the amounts of positive tests that came back last I read, but I don't know what kind of set up their bubble is. As long as they aren't idiots like those baseball players they should be fine.

Even the guys that did test positive like Elliot, Miller and Pederson were asymptomatic so fingers crossed it's good. Not sure if Payton was, someone feel free to chime in there.
