The U.S. Open tennis tournament in New York concluded Sunday. It will be remembered on the women’s side for Serena Williams’s last professional match. On the men’s side, for the first major win by 19-year-old Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz. Unfortunately, his win comes with an asterisk, since Novak Djokovic, arguably the best player in the world, was unable to play. He was prohibited from entering the country because he has not been vaccinated, despite having had COVID-19, which most agree provides better protection than the vaccine, and clear evidence now that the vaccine does not prevent infection or transmission.
