sorry to bring up novax again: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/59999541

Not to worry it looks like he's doing his best to test positive for real

He doesn't seem to learn.

If its proven the test were some how rigged or tempered with to try and gain entry into Aus this whole Covid saga is all he'll be remembered for

Never mind what he'll be remembered for, what will be his punishment?

There was a time when cheating (such as taking drugs) warranted a lifetime ban, although it was usually quashed and they were allowed to cheat again (Ben Johnson springs to mind). Cheating to get into a tournament you're not qualified for is like taking drugs or a man pretending to be a woman to qualify for the womens' event. It should be, if it's proven to be true, the end of his career, and good riddance to him if that's the case.

Could have huge implications for entering Australia next year. They could trigger that 3 year ban.

His punishment will be being remembered for this, that'll hurt him the most

He's always felt he's never had the recognition he deserves compared to what Federer and Nadal get, and tbf he did have a point but in recent years but I think general opinion of him was beginning to shift in his favour up until this

I'd be more surprised to see him there next year than not

I guess a lot depends what happens this year and if he's denied access into other countries

womens final,

if anyone is interested, you can currently back collins in the match market at 5.2 .....and lay in the torny win market at 5.1

Great to see Nadal going for it in this final.

[greenmark]

Extraordinary stuff. Nadal couldn't do it, could he?

[Dallas]

I'll be nothing more than astonishing if he pulls this out the bag from here

Wonder whats going through Djokovic's mind right now

[Euler]

Nadal in this form looks a great chance to win again at RG.

[Euler]

Incredible shot from Nadal to get the break.

[Dallas]

Wow

[greenmark]

I think the crowd quite like Nadal. This is high drama.

[greenmark]

Unbelievable. And agree with Dallas, Djok must be reviewing his approach.

[Euler]

Amazing match and so much credit to Nadal.
