27 June 2020: Back in the fold. My first professional sport tournament UTRProTennis in Sydney since the lockdown. $450k prize money. We have a full house of empty seats; no ball kids; players bring their own towels (provided with a carry basket) and water; pick up their own balls; racquet tapping instead of handshaking; socially distanced group photo; only 3 line umpires; sanitiser wipe down after each match; only 1 photographer (me) allowed. The new normal!
