Why aren't we talking about Novak Djokovic

STATEMENT BY NOVAK DJOKOVIC
12 January 2022

I want to address the continuing misinformation about my activities and attendance at events in December in the lead up to my positive PCR COVID test result.
This is misinformation which needs to be corrected, particularly in the interest of alleviating broader concern in the community about my presence in Australia, and to address matters which are very hurtful and concerning to my family.
I want to emphasise that I have tried very hard to ensure the safety of everyone and my compliance with testing obligations.
I attended a basketball game in Belgrade on 14 December after which it was reported that a number of people tested positive with COVID 19. Despite having no COVID symptoms, I took a rapid antigen test on 16 December which was negative, and out of an abundance of caution, also took an official and approved PCR test on that same day. The next day I attended a tennis event in Belgrade to present awards to children and took a rapid antigen test before going to the event, and it was negative. I was asymptomatic and felt good, and I had not received the notification of a positive PCR test result until after that event.
The next day, on 18 December I was at my tennis centre in Belgrade to fulfill a long-standing commitment for a L’Equipe interview and photoshoot. I cancelled all other events except for the L’Equipe interview.
I felt obliged to go ahead and conduct the L’Equipe interview as I didn’t want to let the journalist down, but did ensure I socially distanced and wore a mask except when my photograph was being taken.
While I went home after the interview to isolate for the required period, on reflection, this was an error of judgement and I accept that I should have rescheduled this commitment.
On the issue of my travel declaration, this was submitted by my support team on my behalf – as I told immigration officials on my arrival - and my agent sincerely apologises for the administrative mistake in ticking the incorrect box about my previous travel before coming to Australia. This was a human error and certainly not deliberate. We are living in challenging times in a global pandemic and sometimes these mistakes can occur. Today, my team has provided additional information to the Australian Government to clarify this matter.
While I felt it was important to address and clarify misinformation I will not be making any further comment out of utmost respect for the Australian Government and their authorities and the current process.
It is always an honour and a privilege to play in the Australian Open. The Australian Open is much-loved by players, fans and the community, not just in Victoria and in Australia, but around the globe, and I just want to have the opportunity to compete against the best players in the world and perform before one of the best crowds in the world.

I know that this is not a murder, but I'm getting OJ Simpson vibes if he gets away with this BS.

Aside from the rules and regulations, even him being immunized is now questionable.
German Der Spiegel went deep into Serbian digital data and found out that his tests were inconsistent.

Looks like his positive test was fake. And that's exactly the reason why he was nonchalant with his social appearances, he was negative the whole time! He even mentioned being Covid free to the French photo crew.
Being arrogant and ignorant as he is, he thought that this annoying inconvenience of a test would never even be glanced at. What a tool.

I hope he starts losing sponsors. He's always been an embarrassment.

This is Fed and Rafa are in a class of their own.

Yes, they are and their last names are hilarious. Especially funny reading that "The Beast" is on his way to destroy (Novak).

I hope” Novax” sticks it to them big time. Not because I am against vaccines but because I hate crazy radicals of all colors and types. And Australian govt is exactly that.


Are you an Australian citizen? If not, why does it matter what you think. Australian citizens get to weigh in on the rules for entry into their country (and many many more are against Novak's entry/playing), and in American we weigh in on who comes to our country. I can't imagine Americans taking it to well if a bunch of foreigners were arguing we should allow someone in against our rules.


Are you kidding?
Have you been paying attention to our southern border?

Regardless, their Covid strategy has been insane and to no avail. They have lock downs, "camps" for Covid patients, massive restrictions and other idiotic policies that have not worked.
The immigration office had approved Djokovic's entry. The PM overturned it. Glad the judge saw the folly in it all.
And, I don't have any problem judging Australia for their insanity. I went to the AO a few years ago. It was great and the Australian people were fabulous. It is hard to believe that they would tolerate the authoritarian measures their govt. has put in place. TBH - I think the only reason our govt. hasn't taken similar steps is the massive push back they have received from citizens and businesses.
I am not a big Djokovic fan and I hope he doesn't win this tournament. But, given the fact that he got the green light to come, he should be given the opportunity.


+1 million

Australia has gone off the rails during this pandemic.

They canceled his visa again. What consumes me is that they used general character grounds now with a blank power their Immigration Minister has, but not the fact that he lied on the visa form?
