    What about a t-shirt with “Where is Novak Djokovic?”

    Whoever wins the male tournament is going to have to have an asterisk next to the win “#1 seed banned from competition.”

     I guess Xi told them it was ok.  The ban was probably getting more news coverage that the shirts did. I'll bet that they have strict instructions to the cameramen not to video anyone with a shirt just like sports here won't show people running out on the field during a game.
