Entering his tennis court ... :)

This is a 'real' tournament because without it , it is, as the Voice will be a token with no substance.

Haha didn’t Nadal say it was good for tennis last year when they banned him, or did he just think it was good for Nadal

I have zero respect for Nadal who put B the boot in last year

Gives the cookers someone to support I guess

Is Nadal shedding?

Why should Novak return to Australia after the way he was treated last time? Just another instance where it all gets swept under the rug.

People’s anger towards Novak Djokovic was ‘misdirected’: Rita PanahiSky News host Rita Panahi says the anger over the COVID restrictions earlier this year was “misdirected” towards tennis star Novak Djokovic. Djokovic’s visa was cancelled 12 months ago following a legal battle over his vaccination status when he arrived in the country for the Australian Open. The former world number one has since touched down in Australia after being granted entry into the country for the 2023 tournament. Ms Panahi said she found the whole controversy “quite disturbing”. “It was so bizarre because instead of being mad at the government and the overreach for the restrictions that were being imposed, the anger was all misdirected at Novak,” she said. 100%. Instead of standing up and fighting against tyranny, the soft underbelly of Australia instead took it lying down, then cried foul at anyone not suffering the same tyranny. Djokovic has made Australia look fools to the whole world. The lunacy that has taken place in our country over the last three years. Thanks to the media propaganda.

Where basic decency was abandoned to the whims of a few politicians based on irrationality and fear. It highlights our culturally sick our country has become Divided?
