Absolute bollocks Yawn. I am not a huge Novak fan, but the Aussie govt and tennis Australia have been ridiculous. What a police state! I wonder why he didn’t just tell them to shove it and leave.

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.
