Rooks also mentioned that this was the same tournament to bann Serena Williams for wearing a Catsuit while playing at the French Open. According to the authorities the grounds to bann Williams was that “One must respect the game and the place.”

Rooks wrote on her Twitter, “These concessions are quite the luxury. Being able to PLAY despite established rules….at the same tournament that banned Serena Williams catsuit saying ‘One must respect the game and the place.'”

She also pointed out the Sexist nature of the decisions made by the French Open. According to her, the following case was a clear example which shows that certain establish rules can only be bended or removed in the cases that involve a male player.

She wrote, “Moments like this show the clear bending of rules that tend to only bend for men.”

She might be right in her deduction because a trivial issue involving a players outfit was dealt in such a harsh way. On the other hand, an unvaccinated person is being allowed to enter the country which could cause a Covid outbreak.
