Novak Djokovic is holding out hope that he'll be able to compete at the U.S. Open despite not being vaccinated against the coronavirus.

The 21-time Grand Slam champion said Saturday on his social media accounts that he's been training as if he'll play at Flushing Meadows when the last major of the year begins Aug. 29.

Although he's been included on the U.S. Open entry list, the United States does not allow unvaccinated noncitizens to enter the country, which is why the Serb needed to sit out big events in Indian Wells, California, and Miami this season. After beating Nick Kyrgios in the Wimbledon final, Djokovic said he “would love” to enter the U.S. Open, but added: “I’m not planning to get vaccinated.”

is he a US citizen?

Why shouldn’t he? The venue will be filled with unvaxed people! What threat is he to anyone? Definitely no science can back this up. 💯 discrimination towards DjokerNole ! Hope he plays! WorldsNumber1

haha One has to live with the consequences of one's actions (or inaction in this case)

6 doctors now if you count the one from Saskatchewan

No exceptions POTUS

Any remaining vaccine mandates are completely about ideology. Vaccines do little and Covid is far more mild than it was in the past few years. Also, vaccinated or unvaccinated is a false dichotomy. Recovery from Covid also matters.

Good Luck 'Joker', you being unvaccinated from Covid-19 must mean that you don't have any belief, trust and/or faith in God(CIA). The Covid vaccines will help people in ways that are far more positive beyond the scope of only helping to prevent a Covid style of 'illness'.

🤡 World Thinks vaccines do anything. Doesn't stop spread... Facts, does almost nothing to prevent sickness, fact.. But we are basically forced to take it to participate. Sounds like fascism

Very strange that vaxxed doctors are dying 5 in the last 2 weeks

What do these 💉💉💉 do? Do they stop the spread? Do they diminish the symptoms? Everyone I know that is 3x💉 is sicker than ever. Can someone enlighten me here with true scientific data, not lies?

Cant blame him for wanting to live a full life. Unlike many other vaccinated athletes that seem to be suffering and or dyin suddenly. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Whyy would you even headline a tweet in that fashion? You People are low. Just no respect for anything that you don't agree with.

Let the best in the world play 🙌🙌🙌

We all need to be vaccinated to enter the US so should he. NO EXCEPTIONS.

It's a deliberate policy designed to identify, and then exclude, political opponents of the regime. The US Govt is making a point by barring such people from the country (it would do the same to US citizens if it could get away with it). Same goes for Canada.

It is absolutely the height of absurdity that he is barred. Zero excuse and only a fool thinks he should be.

His new pronoun: unvaccinated

Well he is in healthier shape than most ppl who need to be vaccinated. It boils down to taking care of yourself not relying on others to fix your problems. Try fixing it yourself. You know your body better than anyone else.

As he should. Segregation doesn't work.

Oh I thought it was a passport issue 😏😏

Given the anti-vaccine rhetoric of Americans in general regarding COVID, I'm surprised Novak's vaxx status remains an issue.

We still playing this unvaccinated vs vaccinated bs? What is even truly “vaccinated anyway? 4 shots? Because that’s like 10% of the population

He is too cowardly to take it. One of those 🤡 s afraid of the needle.

It’s a Covid shot … not a vaccine .

Nope

Do you support vaccine mandates
