Djokovic, banned from Australia for three years, seeks admission to Australian Open 2023

Former Serbian World No. 1 Novak Djokovic announced that he was seeking admission to the 2023 Australian Open.

In January 2022, Djokovic arrived in Australia to play at the Australian Open, but was quarantined by local authorities due to issues with documentation regarding the medical exemption from mandatory vaccinations. The Serbian’s visa was canceled and he subsequently left the country. Subsequently, the tennis player was banned from entering Australia for three years.

“Australia?” We’re optimistic, but this is all unofficial. We communicate through my lawyers in Australia, that is, they communicate with the authorities and government organizations that deal with my case. I hope for an answer, whatever it is. Of course, I hope for a positive result. I hope that in the next few weeks I will receive an answer that will allow me to prepare well for the start of the season.

I want to go there, even if the situation is completely different compared to what happened this year. I went through all the hardships and I really want to play tennis. It’s what I do best. In Australia I’ve always shown my best tennis and it shows in the results, so I’m still very motivated to go there. This time I am even more motivated and I hope the response will be positive,” quotes Djokovic Sportal.rs.

Djokovic has won the Australian Open nine times, a record.
