No matter how great they are sports professionals have to follow the rules…COVID vaccination rules that is.
Novak Djokovic is the world’s number one ranked men’s tennis player. Three days into the new year Djokovic traveled all day from Dubai to Australia where he was looking forward to playing in the Australian Open singles championship.
When he arrived at the Australian airport he thought that his vaccine medical exemption along with his popularity for being the world’s number one tennis player would allow him to enter the country without any problems.
Unfortunately, for him, this was not the case. Djokovic was greeted at the airport by officials and after waiting for hours he was told: “no vaccine, no entry”.
Sorry Djokovic, no matter how good you are, Australia will not let you play without being vaccinated.
