Today is a very sad day for fairplay in tennis.
When the only way you can win is by banning the 9 time defending champion & world number 1, and when everyone is pretending its ok … well its just not and they know it!
#WeStandWithNovak
Media would have crucified Novak had he committed multiple time violation, taken a long toilet break & a long medical time out in one match.
Rafa did all these, but media have been mute. No criticism or whatsoever.
Just think about it...
UPDATE on the letter to Novak:
Please find below a revised version of the draft. I tried to pick up a few suggestions some of you made, please feel to make some more in the comments. If you don't see your name in the signatures, find an error, or want to sign let me know too 😊
Nole always has and always will be class. He’s an absolute legend in my book that has brought so much good to millions around the world. This isn’t right.
To all the tennis players at #AustralianClosed secretly celebrating the departure of #djokovic because it’s your only hope of getting close to winning ..... Shame on all of you for not speaking up against the medical tyranny that is taking place in #australia . Pathetic wooses..
.. talking about this mess. There was a political agenda at play here with the elections coming up which couldn’t be more obvious. This is not his fault. He did not force his way into the country and did not “make his own rules”; he was ready to stay home. [2/2]
Novak would never have gone to Australia if he had not been given an exemption to enter the country by the government (which he did receive; hence Judge Kelly’s initial ruling). He would have skipped the Australian Open and been home with his family and no one would be.. [1/2]
