“Scary that people take zero ownership” – Nick Kyrgios

Djokovic recently in an interview with the New York Times said that he doesn’t feel guilty for organizing the event. And he feels he is being blamed for all the mess.

“I don’t think I’ve done anything bad, to be honest. I do feel sorry for people that were infected. Do I feel guilty for anybody that was infected from that point onward in Serbia, Croatia, and the region? Of course not. It’s like a witch hunt, to be honest. How can you blame one individual for everything?” Djokovic said

Kyrgios replied to the comment and posted his remarks on an Instagram Story. He called the participants of the Adria Tour a group of ‘Albatrosses’. And slammed them because nobody took responsibility for the debacle.
