UNSEEN INSOLENCE! The organisers treat Novak as if he DOES NOT EXIST!

The organisers of Roland Garros slapped Novak Djoković and his fans in the face when they put Stefanos Tsitsipas instead of the defending champion at the promo post of this year's edition of this tournament.

Djoković had a hard time starting this year. First, he was banned from participating in the Australian Open, and then he was knocked out in the quarterfinals of the only tournament in which he participated by an outsider, Jiří Veselý. 

The intention of the organisers of Roland Garros is unclear, especially if we take into account that the French government announced the abolition of COVID passes, which would enable the Serbian tennis player to participate in this Grand Slam.

This move is especially distasteful, having in mind the fact that Novak's participation in this year's tournaments has been uncertain for a long time.

Roland Garros will be held from 22 May to 5 June.
