The United States have changed anti-coronavirus regulations and the Serb could get options to enter the tournament
After his defeat at the Masters 1000 in Canada, the door closed to those not vaccinated against the coronavirus, Novak Djokovic he was weak again in the Cincinnati tournament. Where Rafael Nadal is already training after being absent from the Canadian tournament due to injury. Something expected and that the tennis player himself had assumed for a long time. Perhaps since January itself, when he began his odyssey to play tennis in a post-pandemic era.
What was not expected is that the United States will begin to change health standards and lower restrictions, as the Center for Disease Control (CDC) announced yesterday. Among the most prominent, the one that interests the Serb is the one that states that vaccinated and unvaccinated people will be treated the same.
A situation that could allow him to enter the United States and play in the tournament. Even if it would still be necessary to know if the American health authorities refer to the citizens of the country or to any traveler coming from abroad.
For a long time, the Serb indicated that he was not going to change his mind about the vaccine, although he continues to train as if he was going to play, in case there is an option. “Fingers crossed!” he said in a social media post a few days ago. For the moment, not injecting the dose has prevented him from playing the Australian Open and the Masters 1000 in Miami, Indian Wells, Canada and Cincinnati. The US Open starts on August 29 and the hope for the Serb opens up.
