Today’s “Phrase of the Day” is “the jury is still out” and it’s meaning is “it means the group has not yet reached a decision. It also refers to anything that remains undecided”.
Example Sentence: On April 20, Wimbledon became the first standalone tennis tournament to refuse entries to Russian and Belarusian players… The other reason is probably the chequered (varied) history of sanctions and boycotts that were indeed imposed, including sporting ones, in making a tangible (visible) contribution towards political change. The jury is still out on what the U.S. and its allies’ boycott of the 1980 Moscow Olympics (over the Afghanistan invasion) and the erstwhile Soviet Union’s of the 1984 Los Angeles Games achieved.
