The hotel room wall is helping him get some practice and an online course keeping boredom at bay. Rohan Bopanna`s build-up to the season-opening Australian Open has been far from ideal so far as he waits for his day of freedom —January 30. Bopanna, 40, was on one of the three flights out of a total of 17 Tennis Australia-arranged chartered planes, that landed in Melbourne with positive cases on board. He is in his 10th straight day of hard ‘quarantine` ever since — confined to his room.
However, the veteran, who left Bangalore on January 15 and had a 25-hour layover in Doha before reaching Melbourne, would not call it an ordeal just yet. "If you test positive, you would be in hard quarantine but what we did not know that if someone on your flight tests positive then everyone also had to be in hard quarantine. That`s what happened," Bopanna told PTI from Melbourne.
