Our job today is to be as articulate, as skilled, as masterful in the court of public opinion as the ATP world number 1 is on the court of lawn tennis. For the events unfolding in Australia before the eyes of the whole world are a seminal moment for the sport of tennis, for every professional tennis player on the tour and for a once great and free nation which is fighting valiantly to free itself from the grip of a tyranny every bit as dangerous as that which faced Europe before the start of WW2.
