Bookmaker launches market for the 'next thing Djokovic will demand'

Sportsbet has launched a market for the ‘next thing Novak Djokovic will demand’ in a hilarious response to the World No.

1’s controversial list of hotel quarantine requests.

Along with the likes of Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams, Djokovic is serving his 14-day quarantine in a luxury apartment in Adelaide, and is allowed to train for five hours a day.

But more than 70 players are unable to leave their Melbourne hotel rooms under hard quarantine after at least 10 players and their entourages tested positive to the virus on charter flights to Australia.

Djokovic copped backlash from the public and fellow player Nick Kyrgios for sending a list of suggestions to Tennis Australia, asking for restrictions on athletes to be eased.

The requests included better food, reduced days spent in isolation, 수원셔츠룸 permission to visit coaches, and 인계동셔츠룸 private houses with tennis courts for training. 

Sportsbet has now opened up bets for what the 33-year-old Serb’s next demand will be.

Djokovic requesting karaoke and smoke machines be put in all player’s rooms had the best odds, coming in at $18.

Asking for permission to visit any Melbourne karaoke bar came is betting $21, while Mr Cho of KIA Motors making a post-match ceremony speech at the Australian Open final sits at $28. 

Separate hotel quarantine rooms for Djokovic’s poodles Pierre and Tesla has a $51 return, while demanding a slab of VB is paying $67. 

The five-time Wimbledon winner was slammed as entitled after calling on Tennis Australia CEO Craig Tiley to ask for better conditions for other competitors.

The Serb defended himself on Wednesday, arguing he had good intentions and wanted to use his ‘privilege’ to help other competitors who are unable to practice. 

‘My good intentions for my fellow competitors in Melbourne have been misconstrued as being selfish, difficult, and ungrateful.

This couldn’t be farther from the truth,’ he wrote in an impassioned Instagram post.

Djokovic’s explanation hasn’t been well received by the Australian public, particularly Victorians, who educated him on Melbourne’s brutal five-month stage 4 lockdown last year.

‘I’ve lost my career.

Hundreds of thousands have lost their lives. Economies and industries have collapsed. The world is in turmoil. You have millions, you have your health. Shut up and eat the food for 14 days or take a year off you ungrateful cunt. Nobody cares,’ wrote Victorian comedian Marcus Ryan.

In a statement to clarify the situation, Djokovic said he ‘genuinely cares’ about and wants to help his fellow players.

‘It is very difficult for 인계동가라오케 me to be a mere onlooker knowing how much every help, gesture, and good word mattered when I was small and insignificant in the world pecking order,’ he wrote on Instagram on Wednesday night.

‘Hence I use my position of privilege to be of service as much as I can where and when needed.’

Djokovic also said he has a ‘good relationship’ with Tennis Australia CEO Craig Tiley, and praised him for organising the Grand Slam tournament.

‘In our email exchange I used an opportunity to brainstorm about potential improvements that could be made to the quarantine of players in Melbourne that were in full lockdown,’ he wrote.
