After the whole world rejoiced when the information came out that Novak Djokovic is on the list of participants in the Australian Open, now the dreams have been shattered because that does not mean that he will play.
The director of the tournament Craig Tiley of the first Grand Slam of the season spoke out and clearly said how things are regarding Novak Djokovic and unvaccinated tennis players.
- ”The general list of participants has been published. By the nature of things, everyone enters the list. But the list is not binding and does not show who will be in the main draw, which will be held in a few weeks. ” Craig began.
- “To be clear, no one can play if they are not vaccinated. Either a double dose of the vaccine or one from Johnson & Johnson, which is also approved. The only way to play without being vaccinated is to get a justification for the medical exemption from the Australian authorities, and that has not been the case so far. ”- Tiley was clear.
