The sports journalism community is mourning the sudden passing of Mike Dickson, a prominent figure in tennis reporting. Dickson, who was set to celebrate his 60th birthday on January 27, died suddenly while in Melbourne for the Australian Open.

The news of his death was confirmed through a social media post by his wife and children. "We are devastated to announce that our wonderful husband and Dad, Mike, has collapsed and died while in Melbourne for the Aus Open," read the message shared via Dickson's X account. "For 38 years, he lived his dream covering sport all over the world. He was a truly great man, and we will miss him terribly," added the message from "Lucy, Sam, Ruby, and Joe."

While generally respected in the sports journalism space, Dickson was also the author of many stories shaming and trying to cancel tennis star Novak Djokovic.

"Novak Djokovic will remain a hero to some, but to many others he has TRASHED his reputation beyond repair," and "Novak Djokovic could ruin his chances of becoming the GOAT by refusing to take the vaccine… it is a strange hill to die on for a player who is so desperate to be loved."

There is a lot of "dropped dead suddenly" going on in the sports world.

Instant (delayed?) karma?

“There is a lot of “dropped dead suddenly” going on in the sports world.”

Excellent!

Couldn't happen to a more Deserving Guy!

[GeorgiaDawg32]

He’s not as dead as he would have been had he not taken the job...

The irony is astonishing, and sad.

I have a relative who I believe has had four boosters on top of the first two shots, and her health is deteriorating at a dramatic pace, with several serious lung issues that have suddenly appeared.

(it is a strange hill to die on)

Whereas dying for Pfizer or Moderns is a completely noble cause.

Got it.

Makes perfect sense. 🙄🙄🙄

Classy response by Djokovik.

Died suddenly: Suicide, Fentanyl Overdose, Pfizer fatality ....pick your poison. 99.9999% chance one of these at 38 ... the other .0001% chance is a car wreck, but we’ll write that one off since he was attending a tennis match and there are few car wrecks on tennis courts.

True!!!

Trust the science!!!

Next female dog I get, I’m going to name her “Karma”.

It was a milder form of death.

[Secret Agent Man]

This guy was fixated on Djokovic not being vaxxed. Obssessed. A journolista Karen le Grande.

[ChessExpert]

Like many journalists, Dickson was deplorable and not in a good way.

[SaveFerris]

The way they sold this scam on the public.....

It’s an excellent dry run for the Mark of the Beast.

Dividing people....
