The world of tennis is facing yet another difficult situation in recent months, a situation that directly affects the first Grand Slam tournament of the year, the Australian Open 2021. The tennis players had to carry out a two-week quarantine before being normally, but 47 tennis players were isolated for 14 days due to a contact on the plane with a positive person at COVID-19, a situation that will prevent them from training and preparing for the Australian tournament.

This definitely lowers their chances within the tournament and if we add that many of them are in small rooms, without equipment and without the possibility of communicating with their entourage, we must say that their conditions are at a minimum. This is where the time seems to have come for world number one Novak Djokovic to make himself heard.

According to the Punto de Break colleagues, the Serbian tennis player sent a letter to the Australian tournament director Craig Tiley asking for equal conditions for all tennis players who will participate in the tournament. It is evident that it will not be an easy thing but the organizers are absolutely obliged to try.

Novak Djokovic's requests to Tennis Australia The Serbian tennis player sent a letter to Tiley asking for special conditions and above all equal conditions for all tennis players on the circuit.

Here are some of the measures that Djokovic understood as fundamental so that the competition was not 'distorted' Usually it is the top tennis players who enjoy certain privileges but at this moment it is necessary to have great equality between all athletes: Training material available for all rooms Adequate food for everyone in an elite tournament like the Australian Open Reduce the days of isolation for the 47 tennis players, obviously after having carried out more swabs that highlight their being negative for Covid-19. Authorization to visit coach and athletic trainer after both have passed the tampon.

Finally, Djokovic asked that the tennis players and their coach reside on the same floor of the hotel and if possible move as many athletes as possible to private homes with a tennis court available.
