at the tournament. Players and officials at Melbourne Park are issued with rapid antigen tests for daily testing. The system, however, is effectively an honour system with players not required to prove their negative status when they arrive on site.The German this week said he was living in Melbourne in a self-imposed bubble environment, restricting his movements between Melbourne Park and the main player hotel.
“Like obviously me thinking – a week out of Australian Open – is this ideal? But that’s what everyone in Australia is doing right now, you [have to] test. The Australian Open’s “safe player protocols” include the daily RATs, easy access to testing clinics for players on-site and at the main player hotel, a spokesperson said.
“I am not being tested personally now because I just got over the coronavirus,” Rublev told European sports publication SportKlub. Rublev withdrew from the ATP Cup after arriving in Australia but has reached the Australian Open third round and plays Marin Cilic at Melbourne Park on Saturday. “My brother [Mischa Zverev], when he arrived, he had it. He was in quarantine in Sydney, and now he obviously doesn’t have it any more, but I think quite a few players had it when they arrived. Quite a few players I think have it now.“We are not getting tested, so I think if we would get tested there would be probably more positives than there are now.”
