The US Open will go ahead on the scheduled dates, from August 31 to September 13. But without a preliminary phase, with a reduced table of doubles … and without the wheelchair competition.
The current Olympic champion in singles and doubles, Australian Dylan Alcott has raised his voice to denounce what he considers “gross and gross discrimination”.
Champion in all four Grand Slam, Alcott complained bitterly on his social networks. And also in one interview with The Age, his country's media. “We are told that disabled people are more at risk from the coronavirus, but they should let us decide. Even though I am in a wheelchair and cannot walk, I am in better physical shape than many people who will be reading this, there is no more risk, “he argued.” I am disabled, but please do not call me SICK. ”
Paralympic tennis is another major victim of the pandemic.
