 Novak Djokovic posted a long letter on his social media profiles to defend himself from criticism for his requests to the Australian Open director Craig Tiley regarding the quarantine of 72 athletes confined to hotel rooms in Melbourne.

"My good intentions towards them have been misrepresented," Djokovic wrote.

The world's number 1 rejects accusations that he was "selfish and ungrateful. He couldn't be further from the truth."


    Djokovic had sent a letter to Tennis Australia chief Tiley with a list of inquiries regarding player quarantine conditions including significant restrictions training. The players and their staff were placed in solitary confinement, unable to leave their hotel rooms to train, after several people on three Australian Open charter flights tested positive for Covid-19. The first Grand Slam of the season should start on February 8th.
