Which is funny bc there were at least 3 players that withdrew from Wimbledon bc of having COVID, all of whom were vaccinated.

But the champ isn't.

quote:

While the tournament does not have its own mandate in place for players, organizers say they will respect the government's position regarding travel into the country for non-Americans.

Well that's true, he does know the rules, which is why he's not making a fuss about it or asking for any exemptions.

It’s still a federal rule for non-citizens right?

Can’t see what exactly the US Open can do.

I think the US Open probably wants him there, and he might be able to get in through Mexico I believe, but they can't go against the US government. That would not be a good strategy.

Shame. This will be like the first LIV tournament or the USFL. I won't be watching.

I'm independent, even swing left politicly. I hope it's a bloodbath come November.

This is pure lunacy and why the world's economy is in the shithouse.

Thus my pure lunacy quote. I live in east Tennessee and for the first time in my life I'll be voting straight R.

I don't give a damn if the R is a dog, how could it be any worse than the democrat option?

I mean yeah. That's why he's staying home instead of traveling to a foreign country and breaking their rules even though it's costing him money. Which Griner could have chose to do as well.

Well, there went your ratings share. No Djokovic and no guarantee Nadal will be healthy by the Open. How ironic would it be if a Russian won the whole damn thing, especially considering Daniil Medvedev is the #1 ranked player in the world and has to be the consensus favorite.

Unless you simply cross the southern border, then no laws or rules apply to you at all.
