"The hole he’s digging just keeps getting bigger it makes me laugh" - Tennis fans react to Novak Djokovic's comments on potentially missing the US Open Fans react to Novak Djokovic potentially missing the US Open has been making headlines all year due to his stance on the COVID-19 vaccination. The Serb has been adamant that he will not get the vaccination and has insisted that people should have the right to decide what to put in their body. The 20-time Grand Slam champion has already missed a whole host of tournaments this year, including the first Major of the year Down Under. Djokovic, who has won the Australian Open a record nine times, could only watch from the sidelines as his great rival won his 21st Grand Slam at Melbourne Park in January. The Serb was able to play at the French Open and will be competing at Wimbledon as well. But questions have arisen over his participation at the US Open later this year as unvaccinated travelers will not be allowed to enter the United States. Djokovic, in a press conference, made it unequivocally clear when asked about his views on vaccination ahead of the year's final Major. Q.

Djokovic has given up on GS record. I don't care if Djokovic doesn't win another gs but unable to participate in majors in his last few years of his tennis career is sad.
Uncertainity is painful and it's hard to watch Novak shooting himself in the foot like this. Q. About the US Open, you said there's nothing you can do at this point.

Many fans expressed their support for Novak Djokovic and applauded his decision to stick to his principles. "This is where my love for the player vs. the person is really distinguished," one fan wrote. This is where my love for the player vs. the person is really distinguished. This is where my love for the player vs. the person is really distinguished. Novak doesn't change his mind if there isn't a very good reason. (And there isn't). So proud that he stands with his principles. Unlike a lot of players who didn't actually want to vaccinate but just did it to play. At heart they are just as opposed to vaxing as Novak.

If Novak Djokovic sits out the US Open and is banned from the Australian Open for 3 years, he will not be able to play in ANY of the hard court majors for over a year (soonest would be the 2023 US Open) and he may not ever be able to do so unless he gets vaccinated. Amazing.

Amazing. So he was permitted to play the USOpen last yr when the Covid situation was much worse but not permitted to play it this year? Are we really still doing this? This is insane.
