The meeting of the first round of the Grand Slam tournament – the Australian Open tennis championship (Australian Open) – with the participation of the Serbian athlete Novak Djokovic appeared in the tournament schedule posted on the official website.
Djokovic’s match against his compatriot Miomir Kecmanovic is scheduled for Monday, January 17th.
Earlier it was reported that the federal court of Australia has postponed consideration of the case on the annulment of Djokovic’s visa. A break was announced so that the judges considering the case could study the arguments of the parties, cited during the hearing on January 16.
On January 14, the Australian authorities revoked Djokovic’s visa and decided to deport him. Before that, the Serbian tennis player had problems with the documents necessary to enter the country. Prime Minister Scott Morrison said Djokovic “did not have a valid medical exemption from vaccination” at the time of crossing the border, which is a prerequisite for entering Australia. Also, in the declaration, inconsistencies between the declared information and the real data were found.
