Has this story with Djokovic gone too far?
What do you think?

I think he went to far with that kind of joke, as I have said before, Djokovic has messed up and that media will really take him down whether in a form of joke or something. But this kind of attack went over board, IMHO.

Everyone should move on with Djokovic now, I think he already suffered a lot here.

It could be an 'easy' tournament for Djokovic in the US Open, but we don't know maybe we can see surprises, and other names besides him will win if the US Open resumes without the all star cast we used to see.

I agree, he did go a little too far with this joke and I also think that Djokovic has been ridiculed enough in the media and by other players so I think it is time that it stops. He has made a mistake and lets be honest just take a look around the world right now, how many higher up powers have made mistakes and are making mistakes when it comes to this virus. I can name many government leaders right now and the thing is that it seems that there is no way of stopping this virus no matter what we all do. The thing is that people want sports back, want to go out and want the economy to get moving again so there is a lot of pressure on governments and sporting bodies to get things going again which can cause things like what we saw with the Djokovic tournament. No matter what no one can win when there is a virus like the one we currently have and its going to take a long time before we return to normal and that goes for everything. As the saying your dammed if you do and your dammed if you don't.

@vella85 I agree with you that he crossed a line with this joke, but let’s be honest don’t we all get what his main aim was (publicity), and he got tons of publicity at the expense of Djokovic which is really sad. Also I don’t think Djokovic will be forgetting this soon, as his opponents will definitely keep reminding him of this incident, and I hope that he finds the strength to cope with this mental torture, that he’ll be subject too when the play resumes again.

I do think that Djokovic has the mental strength when it comes to his opponents sledging him if it does come to that however I think that once the crowds come back that they will be even more hostile against Djokovic which could break him down mentally. All this could really put an end to his dominance in tennis and might put a stop to him becoming the top grand slam winner. I've always said that I do believe that he would some day be the top grand slam winner but now I am having my doubts after all this.

@vella85 you this statement is not correct as I am also watching Djokovic for years mentalli he is best tennis player in recent time even phyiscally he is not good enough but sometime he done great jobs against top ranked players and we watch how strong he is mentalli and physically even if crowd is against him its not going to be any problem for him as he can do his best job in next few years we will watch he coule be one off greatest tennis player of this era.

Djokovic has been in the most hostile environment so personally, I don't think it will have a big effect on him playing his best even if the fans are against him. For now, no one can challenge him, after his recovery from injury last year, he has perform even better prior to the injury. So with that said, he can surpass Federer in this era to become the most successful tennis player in history in terms of winning.

I don't agree with you
Djokovic is the best tennis player in the world because of his mental strength.
He won many times in difficult tennis matches, even when all fans was against him, like in Wimbledon final last year with Federer, because of his mental strength.
He will win more grand slams and become GOAT.
I don't see who can stop him now.

Yes, if Novak enters the US Open and other top tier players are either sideline with injuries on has been infected by the virus, Djokovic will have the perfect match for him. However, there will be a question mark, in my opinion. Of course, a win is a win, but without that much competition around, maybe down the line when he retires, there will some question, specially when we talk about this greatness in the tennis court.

yeah, but one can then question a lot of titles, Rafa and Roger won three grand slams each, while Djokovic was out for injury, and Djokovic won four or five while Rafa and Roger were not at their best due to injuries, even Murray would hardly see top spot, if there was not for top players injuries and down performance

it is all sport, and nobody would question their trophies in ten years, maybe hatters, but they would question it anyway

It's different situation though, this is the first time that we will see sports having this pandemic, it's only comparable to ww2 when almost all the sports got suspended. Injuries is very different in my opinion, and there are two sides in every story, of course there are haters, but there are also fans who will debate this for many years whoever won the US Open 2020 under the new norm.
