The question now, is how is it that Djokovic was able to confirm he would be playing at the Australian Open, 8 days before he contracted Covid which would then allow him to gain the exemption?

Let’s be honest, Djokovic didn’t have COVID in December. He’s just saying he did. The day after he “tested positive” he was photographed with a couple of dozen young Serbian tennis players and the day after that he was interviewed face to face.

I really hope the Australians deport him.

The plot thickens as the Serbian PM slams Novak Djokovic for "clear violation of rules" with jail term possible.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I’m not sure what would be funnier: him getting deported or losing his first match in straight sets so that it was a completely pointless journey in the literal and metaphoric sense. Bloke’s come out of it looking like a complete twit.

He looked a complete twit when he had his sports tournament thing in Serbia during the first wave of infections and almost everybody who attended caught Covid.

And you’ve got to love the timing of the decision. Friday evening when he’s due to play on Monday meaning even if he appeals there is realistically no chance of an appeal hearing occurring in time for him to play his match on Monday.

Game, set and match Australian government.

So to summarise.
He didn't break any rules & there were no determined issue with his paperwork or exemption, which was valid. Hawke states this clearly in the court docs. He was deported for the govt not liking his public opinions.

Worrying.
