In a report by Sportklub, it says that both of them are following all the rules and regulations. They are listening to the doctor’s recommendations and abiding with it. They haven’t shown any symptoms yet and are recovering well. This is only the seventh day of their recovery. A corona patient is kept in isolation for 14 days and then tested again. So Djokovic and his wife will be tested on July 7 after remaining in isolation for 14 days from testing.

Since the start of the infamous Adria Tour, Djokovic has been a recipient of a lot of negative comments. He has been heavily scrutinized. Djokovic maintained a defensive stand during the tournament which has come back to bite him. The Adria Tour always lacked the basic precautions like Social Distancing, masks, and no contact between players.

People are raising questions on Djokovic’s responsibility and maturity. He is the president of the ATP players council and thus he is looked upon by the other players. But such antics during these tough times have made his position come under serious threat.
