Nadal asked about Djokovic again. "By the way, I'm quite tired of that subject. When he won the first trial I said here that the justice had spoken. Yesterday the decision was different. I will never be against what the justice says".

Novak Djokovic landed in Dubai and the whole mess that was his entry into the country some 10 days ago is now over.
Tennis players have been widely asked about the situation and the majority of them have opted not to answer the question. Rafael Nadal did not shy away from answering the question and stating his opinion on it. According to Rafa, it was a 'mess' but Djokovic shares responsibility for it as well.
Nadal said:
"By the way, I'm quite tired of that subject. When he won the first trial I said here that the justice had spoken. Yesterday the decision was different. I will never be against what the justice says. What I believe it would be better for the sport would be having all the best players here, including Djokovic. Another thing is what happened. I think the situation is very clear now".
Nadal admitted that both sides made mistakes in the whole process and neither looked particularly good coming out of it but Djokovic shares part of the responsibility. That much is clear to Nadal:
"Always had a good relationship with my rivals. Life is better that way. With Novak it's been like that all my life. I wish him all the best. The situation was a mess and he wasn't the only one who did things the wrong way. But he is one of the responsibles too".

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
