Athletistic/Tennis. Russian Tennis Federation (RTF) Vice-President Alexei Selivanenko has shared his opinion that Novak Djokovic will miss the upcoming US Open due to his reluctance to get a coronavirus shot.

“Novak is one of the strongest tennis players in the world. Without a doubt, his absence is always noticeable, like any other top player in the world. On the other hand, there are enough intrigues now Five people claim to be the first in the world at the end of the tournament,” Selivanenko said.

Citizens of other countries entering the United States must provide proof that they have been vaccinated against the coronavirus. Novak Djokovic does not have such a document, because. he is a declared opponent of vaccination.

Due to his position, Novak missed the Australian Open, which took place in January, with a scandal. Djokovic has been kicked out of the country and banned from entering for three years, which means he won’t play at the Australian Open until at least 2025.
