for the government to keel if the court rules in java beaches say them. and if jock of it isn't allowed to play, how is this likely to disrupt the proceedings when it comes to the australian open? i think it'd be ne, him am festival for the organizes they would have to re, shall the jewel if joker beach is supported and he would either be replaced in the draw by a lucky loser. or as i said, the seeds would be racial, meaning he's lot in the drawer, would go to number 5, see andre rib level, russia and in the favorites, who then become the me to say, to new member id number 3, alex iris, and number 6 rap. i on the doll here told the media earlier that he was a little bit tired of the controversy around. she's rival, what's been the reaction to all of this in australia while melbourne eons have enjoyed seek slow downs and the longest number of days in the world under locked down restrictions, making us a very,
