The worst case scenario is not that tennis players have to play a tournament with poor preparation.
The worst case scenario is that a deadly virus rips through a community who gave up everything to contain it.

Over the years we've praised the work ethic of players like Andy Murray, Carla Suarez Navarro, David Ferrer, Li Na. But no-one, in the entire history of the sport from the invention of lawn tennis in 1873 through to today, has worked harder than that one little asterisk.

The only thing I can think to add to all this is how Ash brings us together, as a whole country. I've never met anyone who has less than complete admiration and affection for her and the way she represents the very best of all of us. Humble, kind, hard working, down to earth.

2014 Brisbane International. She came through qualifying to the first round of the main draw. The compere announced the players
"From Slovakia! Daniela Hantuchova!"
"And from down the road! Ashleigh! Barty!"
And that's how I've thought of her ever since. Ash from down the road.

I want to talk about Casey Dellacqua a little bit - what she means to me and where she sits in Australian tennis. I think the first impression of Casey, for anyone who's had the pleasure of watching her is one of joy. Sunny to the point of radiance, she lit up the court.

Obsessed with Martha giving her retirement piece to Vanity Fair and Vogue, rather than the tennis media. She wasn't kidding about not going out with that ugly carpet.
Maria Sharapova is leaving tennis. In an exclusive essay for Vanity Fair and Vogue, the tennis legend reflects on her career, looks to her future, and asks: How do you leave behind the only life you’ve ever known?

Male Australian cricketers went in with the women and negotiated together - refused to sign their contracts until the women achieved fair conditions. They voluntarily gave up money to go to the female players.
That's how you get there. Solidarity.

The players have no idea just how far the Victorian government stuck their necks out for them to hold the tournament at all. There was a huge amount of anxiety about letting the players into the state and a fair amount of resentment at the special exemptions granted.

Being kept in a room without your phone for hours is normal procedure for anyone experiencing visa issues most anywhere in the world
It's a wonderful time for us all to think about the ethics of borders, and the inequity of visa processes.
Imagine if instead of Australia it was China or Russia.
Imagine, if you will (try hard) if the
#1
tennis player in the world was American/British/Australian & was being kept in a room without his phone for hours about a visa mixup.
How would you react, then?
