Novak Djokovic and participation in the Australian Open is the main topic in the tennis world, and the media continue to attack Serb!
Serbian tennis player is the main topic of the Australian media.
They are keeping a close eye on the events surrounding the participation of the world number one in this Grand Slam.
It was recently reported in the local media that Novak asked for a medical exemption, but according to the director of the AO, that is not true.
– There are confusing stories, but to be clear, no one who has not been vaccinated can play in the Australian Open. It is necessary to have two doses of some of the permitted vaccines or one dose of Johnson & Johnson vaccine. The only way in which participation will be possible without vaccination is to obtain the right to a medical exemption granted by the Australian authorities. So, it is clear that there is no chance for someone to play in the Australian Open if those criteria are not met – said, Tiley.
On this occasion, he further explained the medical exemption.
– The authorities promise complete anonymity for those who apply for this option. Djokovic did not ask for a medical exemption, the media published it without grounds. He said that the information about his health is a private and confidential matter – Tiley added.
Let us remind you, Novak Djokovic would participate in the opportunity to win the 21st Grand Slam title and thus become a record holder in the number of these titles!
The Australian Open starts on January 17, and in the coming days it will be clear to us who will participate in it.
