This whole situation is beyond horrible - Andreea Prisacariu on Novak Djokovic potentially missing US Open

Andreea Prisacariu comes out in support of Novak Djokovic It looks like 's Grand Slam campaign of 2022 is set to end the way it started. The World No. 3 could miss his second Major tournament of the year courtesy of the latest coronavirus guidelines released by the US government. WTA player Andreea Prisacariu has now expressed her anger at the situation, calling Novak Djokovic's predicament "horrible". Although the new set of rules have lifted some of the COVID-19 restrictions, it still doesn't solve problems for Djokovic or any player who has not taken the vaccine against the virus. From now on, international travelers entering the US will not be required to produce a negative test report, but they will be required to show proof of vaccination. Djokovic has not yet taken the vaccine, which is one of the reasons he was deported from Australia a day before the 2022 Australian Open kicked off. He was barred from playing in his favorite tournament, where he was also the defending champion. In an soon after, the former World No. 1 advocated for an individual's freedom to choose what to put in their body. "I was never against vaccination, but I've always supported the freedom to choose what you put in your body. The principles of decision making on my body are more important than any title or anything else. I'm trying to be in tune with my body as much as I possibly can," Djokovic said. The Serb has received support from a lot of people all over the world. And World No. 310 Andreea Prisacariu took to Twitter to show her support for Djokovic. "I read that Nole has many chances NOT to play the US Open. What in the name of Jesus??? This whole situation is beyond horrible. Got no words to describe the feeling. I am pissed," Prisacariu tweeted. I read that Nole has many chances NOT to play the US Open. What in the name of Jesus??? This whole situation is beyond horrible.

Another option is for the 35-year-old to get a special exemption, but the United States Tennis Association (USTA), the tournament organizers, has decided not to ask the government for exemptions for unvaccinated players.
