There are several athletes who for various reasons will be absent in the next Olympic Games, but as for tennis players, casualties abound.
See here: The athletes who said “no” to Tokyo 2020
The list of players who will not be in Tokyo 2020 is long and among the 50 best in the world of the ATP, almost half will miss the jousts. There are 24 of that top who will not participate.
In order not to go too far, in the men’s branch two of the three greats of recent times will not be able to attend, neither Roger Federer nor Rafael Nadal will go to Japan.
As for women, there are 15 of the top 50 who will not even go.
So much low has disappointed the fans of world tennis, who dreamed of seeing the best exponents of this sport in the greatest sporting event in the world.
