    Djokovic Thinks US Open Will Be Cancelled

    https://www.yahoo.com/sports/impossi...172413984.html

    He said the rules for the players are impossible to follow. They have to sleep at airport hotels and don't have their supporting crew with them like trainers. He thinks not many players will accept to play under these terms.

    The best players can do to keep match fit is to play in the exhibition tournaments organised locally and pretty much just wait and see.

    Even guys like Woodbridge who wanted the players to accept that things will be different admitted things would have to be better in the US before even talking about staging a tournament. But things could be better as it gets hotter over there?

    Tennis is the one sport you can play in empty stadiums.. It's a distancing sport by nature.

    Just Corona test all players, umpires, ballboys and tennis coaches the day of. Just like the UFC is doing..

    Done deal.. Tennis SHOULD NOT BE CANCELLED...

    If anyone has queer boyfriends its Federer. The guy could get any girl in the world & his porker of a wife isnt even a 4 on a good day. The players in the locker room jokingly refer to her as James Harden cuz she's that much of a beard.

    Insane schedule, weird to have clay court season after US open-but what isn't these days. Hope big boys show up for the Masters 1000 tournaments.

    Well they were right about the US Open, can’t see it happening.

    The ATP needs a bit more forward thinking planning for 2021...perhaps start the season in Aus/Nz a bit earlier while it’s still summer where covid isn’t as bad and to account for self isolating after travel.

    They’ve been a bit slow with their decisions and announcing a few tour dates was a bit of a laugh considering

    Not sure why you guys think the US Open isn’t going to happen. There’s been a steady downtrend in the virus numbers in New York for weeks. I’d look for that to continue and the tournament to go off as planned.

    Joker will likely be a little more hospitable towards the restrictions after his recent fiasco.

    It's complicated now because what if Nadal and/or Thiem tests positive after the French open starts, but novak has already had it...

    Good point. So maybe Joker got himself infected so he doesn't have to worry about it come slam time. Meanwhile, his rivals will be susceptible and could be forced out should they get infected. Whatever it takes to be the GOAT, I guess.

    I know the players were dumb to play and not social distance. However, Kyrgios is the last person that should be projecting. Isn't this the player that tries to fight fans and has admitted to throwing games in the past?

    Will be interesting to see how the MLS soccer goes having started up this week and how they handle things, and whether other US sports that return or resume will use that as a reference for their own protocols. I know they've talked to other codes in other countries though.

    It may be plausible for the US Open to happen despite the obvious unecessary-ness of it.

    The best way to handle this is just plow on regardless of numbers, shutting down stuff no answer never was

    Following rules is the answer
