Though one has to feel enthusiasm for Daniil - another persecuted by stupid Governments falling for stupid media hype - in his case WAR; in Novak's COVID.
Essentially this is a battle of two great players both of whom were victims of today's stupid public obedience to well promoted bollocks.

How come Daniil was allowed to play? I thought stupid USA had joined the stupid Rest of World in banning Russia from Eurovision etc.

Anyway, delighted he was and in many ways, though I shall root for Novak, I quite like the idea of a Russian winning the US Open.
