Visa Denial Despite Medical Exemption Leaves Djokovic’s Australian Open in Doubt
Season Three kicks off with a recap of one of the biggest stories in the world. By now even non-tennis fans are aware of what's going on 'Down Under' with Novak Djokovic.
After months of speculation, the world #1 shared with his social media followers his impending departure to Melbourne to compete for his 21st grand slam title at the Australian Open with a medical exemption. Simply translated -- he would not be required to show proof of vaccination status.
But drama has since ensued upon his arrival. His visa denied, Novak currently sits in an 'Immigration Detention Hotel' while he waits adjudication of his appeal on his visa denial set for Monday morning -- exactly one week from when he would commence his quest for slam #21.
The guys recap the full timelines, the process for his medical exemption, the reaction of his detractors and fans, Novak's parents (who could both benefit from a muzzle).
Will Novak get in to Australia to compete at the AO? If so, will he extend grace to the people of Melbourne who have gone through a lot during COVID and explain what his medical exemption is all about? Aldwin and Jason give their takes on all that drama!
