Novak Djokovic was deported from Australia on Sunday after losing a bid to stay in the country to defend his Australian Open title despite not being vaccinated against COVID-19

The 34-year-old said he was “extremely disappointed” by a court’s decision Sunday that led to his deportation. But he added that he respected the ruling and would cooperate with authorities.

Three Federal Court judges unanimously upheld the immigration minister’s decision. Djokovic said he was “uncomfortable” that the focus had been on him since his visa was first canceled on Jan. 6. Just as the case has all along, the decision to deport Djokovic split opinion. In Serbia, where Djokovic has received overwhelming support, President Aleksandar Vucic said the hearing was “a farce with a lot of lies.”

But opposition spokesperson on the home affairs portfolio, Kristina Keneally, said Djokovic was being deported for what he said and did publicly overseas before the government gave him a visa in November.

you know what would be super f-ing funny now... that the ITF rule that the open results are null and void.

An adult male was told “If you don’t follow this policy, you won’t be able to play in this tournament.” Then he didn’t the policy. Now he won’t play in the tournament. Weird how that works out

Good

👏

Good for them.

Finally. I've already got two shots. And I'm waiting for the 3rd. Vaccination is important. He's just a selfish entitled man.

Great news 👏🏼 👏🏼

Shady OUT is like the best news one could have for a Sunday. Lying, cheating, privileged brats who think the rules don't apply to them.. sound familiar anyone..

Novak Deportovic.

Good.

Good 👏

Now I'll go to tennis websites for my entertainment news.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

No one is bigger than a country despite their arrogance.

Good, nobody to blame but himself

Good. Being rich, famous, or even talented shouldn't put you above the law when it comes to public health.

Oh gosh, can't wait until Gaetz and Boebert begin fighting over who gets to hire him as an intern. MuellerSheWrote

Novax dropped the ball

'despite not being vaccinated' reads odd in this headline. It's because he was unvaccinated.

He did not testify on his own behalf.
