World number 43, John Millman spoke about how it feels to travel to the United States and be in the US Open bubble.
The 2020 US Open is very specific. It's played without fans and a lot of players are missing. However, that didn't stop organizers from creating a world-class tournament once again. They made everything to prepare the safest environment possible for players.
John Millman shared something about the US Open bubble for the
ATP when he said:
"There are obviously different concerns and the big priority for me was just to try to be as safe and as clean as possible. I think I went through a whole bottle of hand sanitiser," Millman said of his flight to the US. "Obviously everyone was wearing face masks and face shields. It’s about taking the proper precautions and getting used to what travel is like these days. International travel isn’t the same now."
"But when I arrived in New York, I was pleased to see how everything was set up at the hotel. I think the USTA has done a great job," Millman admitted. "They’ve really transformed the hotel to make it really comfortable for the players. They’ve got some nice additions. The coffee baristas are there in the lobby, which is awesome. Tennis players love their coffee. Even the Italians aren’t complaining, which is good!"
"As far as my individual life in the bubble goes, it hasn’t been terribly different than normal. I’ve watched a bit of the NBA basketball. Having the back to back to back to back games has been awesome. I’m not the biggest basketball fan, but that’s been great. I’ve been smashing my fantasy football podcast and my mock drafts because it’s fantasy football season, which is always exciting this time of year," said Millman.
