The Bigger Pattern No One Wants to Acknowledge
This is not an isolated incident.
From:
-
athletes facing visa hurdles based on background,
-
international players raising safety and conduct concerns,
-
pollution repeatedly affecting performance,
to now:
-
bird droppings halting a world-tour match,
the issue is not perception. It is standards enforcement.
Global sport is not charity. Hosting rights are not entitlements. They are responsibilities.
