Roland Garros starts 15 May so plenty of time before he would need to fly to France.

He was banned from the country, not the competition.

indeed, he was refused entry as he may have been a danger to the population by not having COVID.

Spain & France are looking at banning him.


Wimbledon is looking at banning him, even if the government changes the rules, that would allow him to enter.


So it's likely that many other tournaments will follow suit.

As far as I can see, all three of those are also [potential] bans from the country, not the tournament.

I think the original tweet was meant to be taken as satire rather than a statistic of historical importance.

My vacuum cleaner isn’t a hoover either. ;)

Usual UK rules apply.

If he wins, he's British. If he loses, he's Scottish. ;)
