For those who were asterisking AO 2022 and other titles, are we also asterisking RG 2023?

Discuss. Some on here have been super insufferable with asterisking every tournament Djokovic didn’t play in last year. I want to see if they will apply the same standards here

A certain sect of people were screaming asterisk for every tournament Djokovic didn’t play in last year though 🤣, but I wonder if they are consistent at least

Of course not lol. Irony and hypocrisy don't exist in a certain fanbase dictionary lol.
Of course as I have been saying for months their arguments helped ensure Nadal as undisputed GOAT forever (depending what Alcaraz goes on to do).

Djokovic is an irrelevance at USO in terms of winning it has been for half a decade.

There are no asterisks, all Slams were won fair and square, heck, even most people consider Thiem's 2020 Slam abomination a fair slam, or the 2003-2007 Fed's Slam collection.

Asterisk is when a healthy player and a past (multiple) winner is absent, even though he is willing to play. There is no such thing at RG23.

He was not eligible to play in the country through his choice. He wasn’t singled out lol. He could have played if he wanted to. It’s not like he was banned over nationality or something he couldn’t control

Yeah, I don’t understand how some portray him as a victim during last year. You can agree or disagree with the mandates, but at the end of the day, he didn’t fulfill the requirements to enter some countries and others did. Even he said that he accepts the consequences

Nadal wasn't the favourite for RG even before he got injured and pulled out. He looks pretty much done. Novak was the overwhelming favourite for AO.
