Novak Djokovic has been in New York for almost a week now but not in the bubble established by the tournament in a hotel but in a rented house on the outskirts of the city (as part of the protocol he has to pay for 24 hour security).
In one of the moments when he was not in the Billie Jean King complex, Djokovic gave a virtual press conference through Zoom in which he gave his opinion on the conditions for traveling to the United States and a certain possibility of getting off the Grand Slam .
“I was very close to not coming. There was a lot of uncertainty, and I think that right now some things are still not entirely clear. But I want to play, that’s why I’m here. Personally, I’m not afraid of being in a situation where there is a certain risk for the health. If I felt that fear, I would not be here. I am very cautious and respect the imposed rules like everyone else. But the reality is unpredictable: anything can happen, both on and off the court, “synthesized the number one of the world.
