The coronavirus was found to be positive Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova upon arrival in Melbourne in view of the Australian Open.
«Unfortunately, I have some bad news. I arrived in Australia on Tuesday and tested positive for Covid-19“, Wrote on Twitter the finalist of Roland Garros.
«I was fully vaccinated and preparing for the start of the season in Dubai, but we are living in a very difficult and unpredictable time. At the moment I am in complete isolation, in a special hotel and I follow all the protocols under the supervision of doctors».
The 30-year-old, number 11 in the world, reached the top of her career last month after a stunning 2021 season in which she reached her maiden grand final, winning gold at the Tokyo Olympics in doubles with Rublev and led Russia to the Billie Jean King Cup title in Prague.
Several players stopped preparing for the Australian Open due to Covid-19, including Rafa Nadal, Denis Sapovalov, Andrei Rublev, Belinda Bencic and Ons Jaber, who tested positive after appearing in a Abu Dhabi tournament.
