    Definitely a poster boy for anti vaxxers.

    He wants to run by his own rules, be bigger than the game. Meanwhile Rafa gets the record!!

    Saga end

    Novak Djokovic has said he would rather miss out on future tennis trophies than be forced to get a Covid vaccine.

    Speaking exclusively to the BBC, he said missing competitions, such as the French Open, over his jab status, was "the price that I'm willing to pay".

    Novak Djokovic willing to miss tournaments over vaccine

    Not sure how novak had his 3 year ban overturned.

    I have heard the bar for overturning the ban is so high that even breakup of family is not reason enough at times.

    Curious to know on what basis it was allowed.

    Anyway glad he is back and about to win it all over again :D

    The crime he committed resulting to his ban is no longer a crime.

    But a ban is a ban ... was this rule generally applied?

    I see Novak Djokovic will finally be able to enter the United States on May 11th when the Biden administration finally ends its covid shot mandate.

    The bill passed the House early in February. It's taken a while for it to progress.

    We had a nephew coming over for a visit recently. He was turned away at the airport because he was unvaccinated, and while he was allowed into Australia, he wasn't allowed onto the flight which transited in the US. He had to get his shots and postpone his flight.
