Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic gestures as he practices at Melbourne Park as questions remain over the legal battle regarding his visa to play in the Australian Open in Melbourne, Australia, January 13, 2022.was included in the Australian Open draw as top seed on Thursday though uncertainty hung over his participation with the government considering whether to revoke his visa for a second time.

The saga has intensified global debate over the rights of the unvaccinated and become a tricky political issue for Prime Minister Scott Morrison as he campaigns for re-election. On arrival, Australian Border Force decided his exemption was invalid and he was held alongside asylum-seekers at an immigration detention hotel for several days.

“What he should , is kick him out,” Melbourne resident Tyler Agnew said of the pending decision, reflecting widespread anger in a country that has endured some of the world’s longest lockdowns and has a 90% vaccination rate among adults. “He is still very aware he may not get to the starting blocks for round one,” Woodbridge, who is now a commentator, told a tournament television programme. “He is very, very visible … it’s taking a toll on him.”

“That’s what I’ve said to every single Victorian, that’s what I’ve done, that’s what my kids have done, that’s what families, 93% of our community has done that, and I’m very proud of them for doing it, I’m very grateful.”
