(Reuters) - Former world number one Victoria Azarenka has urged her fellow tennis players to "accept and adapt" to health regulations in Melbourne ahead of next month's Australian Open amid widespread criticism about hotel quarantine.

More than 70 players, plus members of their entourage and officals, have been placed into hard quarantine and are unable to train after passengers on three charter flights returned positive tests for the coronavirus.
