Summary
It also raised questions about his public appearances in Serbia last month, particularly a media interview he attended despite knowing he was positive.It was another twist in a saga over whether the athlete should be allowed stay in Australia despite not being vaccinated.The initial news that Djokovic was granted an exemption to strict vaccination rules to enter the country provoked an outcry and the ensuing dispute has since overshadowed the lead-up to the Australian Open.Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce said most Australians disapproved of the nine-time and defending Australian Open champion coming to Melbourne to compete in breach of the nation’s tough pandemic quarantine rules.“Most of us thought because Mr. Djokovic hadn’t been vaxxed twice that he would be asked to leave,” Joyce said.
