Yeah but when he entered, he was entitled to enter, and wait and see if the American vaccine rules changed. Or whether he might change his own mind and get vaccinated. That’s why he’s on the list.The rule right now is he cannot enter. That’s clear. If he can’t enter, then he can’t play the USO. The USTA knows this, so they should remove his name. That’s not a political move; it’s practical. It’s stupid to keep the name of someone who can’t even enter the country on the entry list.
He’s still entitled to wait and see, even though it’s somewhere between highly unlikely, and totally impossible, that he’ll get what he wants. There might be stuff going on in the background where they ask him if he’s coming, and we’ll know soon enough, but I don’t blame him for hanging in there until the grim death on this, and if it’s selfish, well so what? He’s earned the right to be selfish…
