Oh, absolutely Team Fedal and Murray, always and forever. Those other, sexist douchebags forming a “union” (except not) can shove it. I’m sorry but Novak has the worst ideas and opinions most of the time. Also, think things through before announcing them and causing conflict. And his buddy Isner is a Trump-er, so.

Ignoring the second tweet for a second, but that’s literally how insurance works.

‘Company gets insurance and then claims that insurance when applicable’ is not a story.

Normally I would agree with you, but in the context of “during a disaster that almost nobody had anticipated was even possible, one company HAD gotten insurance for this shit” is news, because unusual things are news, and being prepared for the corona virus at all is very unusual.

You know right that pandemics existed before Corona virus and that this insurance was for pandemics and not just corona and therefore actually kinda sorta really makes sense

I looked it up and apparently, Wimbledon’s Risk and Finance Committee demanded that pandemic insurance be purchased after the SARS outbreak in 2002. They recognized that a pandemic was a threat to their event after SARS and made a plan.

Apparently some furry conventions have also had pandemic insurance, so we can all live with the knowledge that furry conventions and a tennis tournament were better prepared for a pandemic than any other businesses and most governments.
