Muguruza speaks out on Djokovic controversy - "I don't see why you have to do it differently"

Several tennis stars have spoken out on the controversy surrounding Novak Djokovic, with WTA star Garbine Muguruza being the latest to voice her opinion on the matter.

The two-time Grand Slam champion was questioned on Djokovic's detention at a press conference before the Sydney Tennis Classic tournament, to which she responded by saying it could have been avoided and contributed nothing to the sport.

“It’s a bit of a show what is happening," said the 2020 Australian Open runner-up. "Sooner or later we all have to get vaccinated so I don’t know why so much controversy, it’s a show that doesn’t benefit tennis at all.”

The 28-year old was then asked about her vaccination status, to which she gave an earnest response.

“I am vaccinated and I have no problem saying it," revealed Muguruza. "The truth is to get into a little dangerous grass, but I am vaccinated and happy to do it, I don’t see why you have to do it differently."
