Novak Djokovic, the world's number one tennis men's singles, was denied entry in Australia due to inadequate vaccination exemption documents, an organization founded by Djokovic and others issued a statement. He wants to take the time to speak in his own words. "
Djokovic arrived at the Melbourne airport on the 5th to compete in the Australian Open, which opens on the 17th of this month, but was denied entry due to incomplete vaccination exemption documents.
At the Australian Open, completion of vaccination is one of the conditions for athletes to enter the country, and Djokovic has shown a negative position on vaccination, so it seems that vaccination has not been completed, and then a hotel for isolation in Melbourne. I am staying at.
About this, a group of players established last year led by Djokovic issued a statement on Twitter on the 7th, clarifying his claim and so on.
In it, he complains, "Djokovic is in good health and he wants to take the time to speak in his own words."
"We should respect every position for vaccination and be given the freedom to participate in the competition. We will support all athletes until they are satisfied."
Djokovic's lawyer has filed an objection to an Australian court over the refusal to enter the country, and a full-scale trial will be held next week.
