(ANSA-AFP) – ROME, DEC 29 – The dripping of covid positive announcements among tennis players continues today, with the French Benoit Paire, n.46 in the world, who has self-reported on social media with a rather explicit place ( “Hi, my name is Benoit Paire and for the 250th time I am positive. Frankly, I am sick of this covid of m … !!”). Now he is also at risk for the Australian Open, starting on January 17th, also because Paire admits that “with all these quarantines in a hotel room, I don’t feel very good in my head”.
Meanwhile, in Australia, concern is growing in view of the first major of the season, with home idol Nick Kyrgios who has appealed to Rafa Nadal and Novak Djokovic to participate.
“It would be a disaster if all three of the big names in world tennis were missing,” he stressed. If Roger Federer is still stationary after the knee operation, Nadal has contracted Covid-19 and Djokovic has not confirmed whether he will go to Australia to participate in the ATP Cup and the Open.
