your reporting on facts is dismal ...

Well done....right decision made. No matter who you are, the rules still apply.

I am extremely happy

Get SueGray to investigate it 🤣

1 down, 2 to go

I however am elated that an elite lier has been found out and kicked out, well done Oz

Proves it has bugger all to do with Covid. He's been there long enough for them to know he's no risk

Good

This is a decision that has been enabled by all those tennis players who were too keen to wave their jab status to play in the now not so open Australian Open. Djokovic must be disappointed in those players.

Well dont lie on your forms and dont go out when you have covid simples

God bless Australia 🇦🇺... Good decision. Next time, respect the rules even if you've got the money and fame. Once more, God bless Australia.

The U.K. wouldn’t have the tennis ‘balls’ to see this through. Will welcome this hypocrite with open arms when it comes to Wimbledon. We are a walkover in this country!!

Well done Australia for not putting up with someone rich&famous who broke the rules ,laws. Novak you are a liar&risked others , should face a band..Wheres your supporters&family now? Novak do you have no shame ? You're out!

Good. If you know the rules and try to bend / break / disregard them then you should pay the penalty. How would he like it if when playing a game someone kept being allowed to break the rules and he wasn’t ?

Good should be same for everyone if they brought in vaccination passport this wouldn't have happened and then no drama no vax no holiday, big event etc

If you are unvaccinated then Australia has the right to deport, doesn’t matter if you’re a top tennis player Nigel_Farage

Good. Novax no play

Elk clearly he must have known the Australian requirements so why does he just not get the vaccine will be the same in all other countries to so in your own hands 🤷🏼

Well I’m disappointed in his lack of concern for other countries guidelines, I’m disappointed in his lack of concern for those he might have infected, I’m disappointed in his arrogance that rules and guidelines don’t apply to him…

👏👏👏👏👏 Well done Australia, let's hope we do the same for Wimbledon.

Good. He encouraged dangerous fools.

Proper order too. It's well past time to put these anti vaxers back in their boxes. DjokovicOut australia

ZoeMuldoon Truth prevails 😉

Brilliant absolutely brilliant news

Brilliant absolutely brilliant news

For 'Disappointed ' read my arrogance and sense of entitlement was my undoing but I will still blame others .

Wimbledon 😳🤔

Safe trip home 🏠

lucrezianews Novak Djokovic is the first player to be knocked out of a grand slam tournament after missing only 2 shots. NovaxDjokovic

Serves him right.

'Extremely disappointed because he could not manipulate the Laws'. Good riddance!

Aussies will not be told what to do, I wish our country would take their stance.

Hes on is way home because his visa is like boomerang

Maybe your get vaccinated now.

Liamjacko bye

Ban him from oz for 3 years. Please 🙏

2/2 he now needs to show some grace and dignity, jump on his First class Emirates flight home and work out how he is going to repair his reputation as a role model.

1/2 djokavic chose not to play in the AO when he chose not to get vax. He gained a technical lifeline-when he contracted covid 16 Dec but lost this by not following local laws to isolate, instead choosing to do media opportunities, and by lying on his arrival documentation. 1/2

Another one sorted out Thinks he's above the law Now let's go for the trolley ie big dog next

Djokovic knew the entry rules for Australia, but lost … well done Australia for standing your ground … game, set, and match

The right decision finally! He applied for the exemption late (after 10th Dec) yet was allowed to apply, so he has had special treatment all along. Hopefully this shows him and other people that no-one is above the law, irrespective of how big their head is.

Well that's what happens when you don't get the vaccine

Good.

Will wait for his dramatic dad to appear on tv again then lol

Bye Novax 👋

Hopefully he won't find yet another excuse to drag this sorry saga on some more! It wasn't very smart of him to lie with impunity then, instead of apologizing, hire an army of lawyers to bail him out. He will never live down the damage he did to his reputation during this mess.

💯

That’s him run out of challenges now
