WTA Suspends Tournaments in China Over Treatment of Peng Shuai (Published 2021)
Steve Simon said Wednesday that the women’s tennis tour would not stage tournaments in China, including Hong Kong, because he has been unable to communicate with Peng despite repeated attempts.www.nytimes.com
Can't wait to hear his response. Probably just another cheap dig at the federal opposition and that's it.So Novak got a medical exemption. Pathetic. Didn’t Dan say he wouldn’t be playing if not vaccinated?
This from Merlino.
Victoria's Deputy Premier James Merlino said in December that there would be no special favours for superstars.
"They're the rules. Medical exemptions are just that — it's not a loophole for privileged tennis players."
Sorry, that’s exactly what it is
Yep, absolute joke. Unfortunately I think he's already on the way over.Word seems to be the federal government have approved it.
Regardless it is an abject disgrace and I'm backing it will be overturned faster than you can say backdown.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like it will be overturned. Hopefully he’ll lose 1st round.Word seems to be the federal government have approved it.

The feds may have let him in to the country but both the state govt and AusOpen officials could still prevent him from playing. I'm tipping McGowan would stop him from playing if it was held in WA.Word seems to be the federal government have approved it.

Yes I agree a mighty big heckling in order , lots of spilling of the cheese platters on his backswing . Geeez I reckon I’d barrack for Kyrgios over the Joka , nah that’s a lie I wouldn’t be watchingDoubt it’ll be over turned.
Booooooooooooooo !!!!!
(Just practicing.)
Only reaction that would be noticed, would be for no-one to turn up for his games n that won't happen.I’m interested to see the crowd reaction at his games, in light of this.
Can't see him coming back here from now on. Go Rafa.Novax being sent home at this stage.
Good. He's an entitled tosser.
