Melbourne: Australia cancels Czech woman’s visa after Novak Djokovic The visa of Renata Voracova, who arrived for the Australian Open (Australian Open 2022), has been canceled. Renata, who did not take the Kovid vaccine, also applied for a special waiver. Renata is currently in the observatory where Djokovic is being held. But it is not clear whether they will appeal.
Trapped Djokovic
The Australian Open starts on the 17th of this month. The rule is that participants in the tournament must take two doses of the vaccine. Concessions will be given to those with health problems who are unable to get the vaccine. World number one Novak Djokovic has arrived in Melbourne, Australia, claiming he has been granted a waiver.
On arrival at the airport, Djokovic was stopped by security forces. Kovid made it clear that no one could be exempted in Australia, where the expansion is rampant. Djokovic was detained at the Melbourne airport for more than 15 hours. The superstar was then transferred to a government-run hotel.
Joko’s thanks to the fans
Novak Djokovic took to the stage to thank the fans for their support during the controversy. “The support from around the world is great,” the Serbian star wrote on Instagram. Djokovic is staying at a hotel in Australia after his visa was revoked for not taking the vaccine. An Australian court is expected to rule on Djokovic’s repatriation on Monday.
