阿德里亚表演赛持续发酵，并陷入舆论漩涡，一石激起千层浪。众多批评之声指向赛事组
织者德约科维奇。两天前，德约科维奇确认新冠检测呈阳性，妻子也一同感染。另外三名
感染的球员分别是迪米特洛夫、丘里奇Coric以及特洛伊基Troicki。体育界众多媒体批评
该表演赛不适当的安全措施，这给运动员和观众带来了风险。
ATP主席高登兹接受《纽约时报》采访时表示，他曾建议参加阿德里亚表演赛的观众采取
必要的预防措施，并尊重社交距离，但显然没有人这样做。然而，ATP没有权力对非官方
的表演赛施加规则：
“很明显，我为球员们感到难过，希望他们尽快康复。”
“我知道有一些批评，但另一方面，警醒ATP和美国网球协会必须非常小心，因为即使采
取非常严格的措施，一些球员还是可能会感染，球员们没有必要为了测试结果而互相拥抱
。”
“所以我们都在冒险，这有点像告诉你的孩子学骑自行车时要戴头盔，他们说不、不、不
，然后继续骑车，直到摔倒才会戴上。”
“现在我们都知道这很容易发生，所以我们会更加小心。”
ATP计划于8月中旬恢复办赛，率先举办的是华盛顿公开赛，随后辛辛那提大师赛移师至纽
约进行，而美网将于8月31日-9月13日开打。

Andrea Gaudenzi, the ATP chairman, said the tour had recommended that players
competing on the Adria Tour and in other unsanctioned events take “proper pre
cautions and respect social distancing.” But ultimately the ATP had no jurisd
iction to impose safety regulations.
“Obviously we feel sorry for the players,” Gaudenzi said in a telephone inte
rview. “We want them to recover as soon as possible. I know there has been a
lot of criticism, but on the other hand, we at the ATP, the U.S.T.A., and ever
ybody, we have to be careful because we also have to be conscious that even wi
th extreme measures, you could actually end up having some players testing pos
itive. You don’t need players and people hugging each other for someone to te
st positive. So we’re all running the risk.”
The positive tests on the Adria Tour could help make subsequent events safer,
Gaudenzi said, by making players more willing to stay in the restricted enviro
nment imposed to reduce the risk of infection.
“It’s a little bit like when you tell your kids when they try to learn to ri
de the bike to wear the helmet,” Gaudenzi said. “It’s ‘no, no, no’. And t
hey ride the bike, they fall, and then they wear the helmet. Now we all know w
e can get this very easily, so we’re going to be even more careful, and maybe
we will have a little bit more tolerance toward the bubble.”
