  • Rafael Nadal menganggap US Open 2020 tetap bergengsi seperti layaknya turnamen grand slam yang lain.
  • Beberapa petenis top memutuskan absen karena khawatir dengan penyebaran Covid-19.
  • Rafael Nadal memilih tak tampil di Flushing Meadows, New York, 31 Agustus-13 September 2020.

SKOR.id - Rafael Nadal masih menganggap US Open 2020 bergengsi bergengsi seperti turnamen grand slam yang lain, walau satu per satu pemain top, mundur.

Petenis berjulukan King of Clay itu juga memutuskan absen dari US Open 2020 karena  merasa kondisi dunia belum aman akibat pandemi virus corona (Covid-19).

"(Biar bagaimana pun) turnamen ini tetap besar. Ya, ini adalah turnamen grand slam," ujar Rafael Nadal dilansir dari Tennis 365.

"Saya bukan tipe pemain yang dengan arogan mengatakan (US Open) ini tak lagi bergengsi hanya karena saya absen."

"Tentunya, turnamen akan bergulir dalam kondisi spesial (karena protokol kesehatan). Tapi, tetap saja ini kompetisi grand slam."

"Siapa pun yang memenangi turnamen ini nantinya juga tetap dianggap sebagai juara grand slam," ia menambahkan.

Rafael Nadal menyebut pandemi Covid-19 sebagai alasan dirinya tak bisa terbang ke New York, lokasi digelarnya US Open.

Petenis asal Spanyol itu mengatakan keputusan mundur dari US Open 2020 terpaksa diambil karena Covid-19 bisa mengancam keselamatannya.

Meski penyelenggara US Open 2020 bakal menerapkan protokol kesehatan yang ketat, Rafael Nadal tetap mengaku khawatir.

Tapi, dia akan mendukung rekan-rekannya yang memutuskan tampil di Flushing Meadows, New York, 31 Agustus-13 September 2020.

"Saya memahami bahwa kata-kata saya memiliki risiko. Sulit untuk mengatakan pilihan ini benar atau salah," kata petenis 32 tahun itu.

"Saya sangat menghargai kerja keras USTA dan ATP yang (berusaha) mengembalikan lagi turnamen (yang hilang sejak Maret 2020)."

"Ada banyak pemain dengan situasi berbeda dan ingin segera bertanding. Mereka butuh uang karena masalah finansial (akibat pandemi)."
