As he prepares to spend the weekend at the Park Hotel in Melbourne, where he has been held since Thursday after the cancellation of his visa, Novak Djokovic has all the time he needs to manage his social networks. This is what he did on Friday by posting a message of thanks to those who, from Serbia or the foot of his hotel, gave him their support. “Thank you to my family, loved ones, Serbia, and all the good people around the world who send me their support. I can feel it and it is greatly appreciated. Thank you to God for your health, ”he posted on his Instagram account.

While Novak spends the time as best he can hanging out on the internet, his lawyers are working on the case that they will present, Monday, to the judges in charge of ruling on the validity of the documents provided by the Serbian to legitimize his exemption medical.

These could in particular choose to charge Craig Tiley, the boss of the Australian Open, whose ears whistle more and more as the hours pass.

Can Djokovic (still) save his image with the general public?

In fact, in the note he sent to the players involved in the tournament, on December 6, Tiley would have told them that the fact of having contracted Covid-19 during the last six months was a ground for exemption, when the federal authorities had just indicated to him the opposite.

Indeed, these would have made it clear that an unvaccinated player could not enter the territory without going through the quarantine box.

Damn selective memory ...
