‘I don’t see the logic’ – Djokovic weighs in on rules preventing him fromp
laying US Open

“No unvaccinated people can enter the USA as of this moment,” said the 35-ye
ar-old. “I did hear unofficially that some people got away with it, some peop
le who are not ‘famous’, but I would never even try to go to the USA if it i
s not allowed.
到目前為止,沒有任何未接種疫苗的人可以進入美國,我私下聽說有些人僥倖逃脫了處罰
,有些人並不有名,但如果不被允許,我甚至不會嘗試去美國。
Some people think that I made that mistake in Australia, but it was the contra
ry in fact – I had the exemption etc, let’s not go over the same story again
. Bottom line is: if I am told that I cannot go, I won’t go, I would never pu
t myself in such a position. Even if I get in, they would see me on TV playing
tennis and pick me up!
有些人認為我在澳洲犯了那個錯誤,但事實恰恰相反——我有豁免權,我們不要再重複同
樣的故事了。我的底線是:如果我被告知我不能去,我就不會去,我永遠不會讓自己處於
那樣的困境。即使我入境了,他們也會在電視上看到我在打球,然後就來把我帶走!
“On a more serious note, I have been texting with Tennys Sandgren a few daysa
go. I wanted to thank him for the public support he has given me in this situa
tion. What he said makes total sense – if unvaccinated players are not allow
ed to compete at the US Open, then it should be the case for everyone.
嚴肅點說,幾天前我一直在和Tennys Sandgren傳訊息,我要感謝他在這種情況下給予我
的公眾支持。他所說的完全有道理——如果不允許未接種疫苗的球員參加美國公開賽,那
麼每個人都應該如此。
I don’t see the medical logic behind it, that Tennys can play because he is a
citizen of the USA, and I cannot. If I had a US passport or a green card, I w
ould be able to play. Maybe there is a political logic behind it – not medica
l – but I would rather not get into that and you can understand why.”
我看不出這背後的醫學邏輯,因為Tennys是美國公民,所以他可以上場,而我不能。如果
我有美國護照或綠卡,我就可以打了。也許它背後有一個政治邏輯——不是醫學上的——
但我寧願不去參與其中,你可以理解為什麼。”
Sandgren也有發推聲援Djokovic
