BErnard Tomic reported two days ago that he had the symptoms of the coronavirus while playing his first match of the preliminary phase of the Australian Open.
In fact, the Australian addressed the chair umpire showing his dissatisfaction with the fact that PCR tests were not carried out and that it was valid only with an antigen carried out by the players themselves.
“I am convinced that I have Covid. I invite you to dinner if I do not test positive in three days, otherwise you invite me to dinner“, deca the referee.
Well, in 48 hours Tomic tested positive, who is isolated and with strong symptoms. That could cause massive PCR to occur to all the players who were close to the Australian, including his executioner, the Russian Roman Safiullin.
“I still feel pretty bad,” confesses the player to the local media. Bernard’s positive joins that of Nick Kyrgios, who was absent due to that circumstance this week at the ATP in Sydney.
