    Of greater concern of the Australian officials was he lied on his visa application about his previous travels to get to Australia. If you or I did that we may not have even made it past customs.
    The minister has the power to deny a visa for basically any reason he wants. The fairly obvious lies on the application & questions over the truthfulness of his COVID diagnoses were grounds. So is virtually anything else the minster so desires.

    There is very, very little sympathy for him here, and I note that the French Open has now made it clear that it will be a vaxed only tournament.

      Why was he allowed into the country in the first place ?

      The greatest concern for GoA is the court not overturn the visa denial by the immigration minister. That would have been a real embarrassment.

      12 hours of deliberations on a Sunday, GoA happy, 70% Aussies happy.

      Djokovic unhappy.

      I'm surprised to learn that the men's top seeded player sees no risk of Covid to himself (!)

      He's an active player. He does not work at a desk. One bad spell and its curtains for his career.

      People can be strong headed but this is taking it a bit far.

        Cause as I said, he is not you or I. He was sent to a quarantine motel while his case was heard...just like every other scofflaw.

          Are you a top ranked tennis player? Nope, end of story.

            Scientists in Wuhan have flagged a deadlier coronavirus found in bats from South Africa. They say the virus is one mutation away from infecting humans. Its mortality rate is around 33%.
