Djokovic latest here 👇

His legal team said he had the necessary permissions to enter Australia, including an assessment from the Department of Home Affairs that responses on his travel declaration form indicated he met the conditions for quarantine-free arrival.“This is because there is no such thing as an assurance of entry by a non-citizen into Australia. Rather, there are criteria and conditions for entry, and reasons for refusal or cancellation of a visa,” its filing said.

Novak Djokovic: Having Covid gave tennis star vaccine exemption - lawyersNovak Djokovic's lawyers say a positive test on 16 December allows the tennis star entry to Australia. Who does he think he is! He just plays tennis! It's not even his own country, what an attention seeker! Why does he think tennis is more important than others who haven't seen loved ones or have lost loved ones and still not allowed to travel there. What an ego! So, wait, he had it in June 2020 and December 2021?

Djokovic drama 'really bad', says MurrayAndy Murray says he is dismayed at Novak Djokovic's struggle to gain entry to Australia, saying it is 'really not good for tennis at all'. Too many highly privileged sportsmen appear to be antivaxx Prima Donnas. Australia has been a salutary moment. I enjoy the thought of the rabid COVID cowards skimming through the story in the hope that Murray gets involved with their psychopathic persecution of a man choosing his own medical treatments. I guess lots more dogs will be punched after that disappointment. ‘Not good for tennis’? Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

Novak Djokovic not told 'so-called medical exemption' would be accepted - government court documents claimThe Australian government did not tell Novak Djokovic that his 'so-called medical exemption' would allow him to enter the country to compete in the Australian Open, court documents claim. The reality is he should have not entered Australia. How many people could he have affected back home and in Australia . Just because he is a top class tennis player doesn't give him more rights than the general public. CoruscaKhaya We support him, you can't be forced.
