New York: The US Open Grand Slam tennis tournament begins tomorrow. Star player Novak Djokovic (Serbia) did not participate due to the Corona vaccine controversy. While she was denied entry to the Australian Open earlier in the year, she competed in the other Grand Slam tournaments, the French Open and Wimbledon. In this case, Djokovic did not get a visa to come to America because he was not vaccinated. So he did not participate in the US Open which starts tomorrow.
Rafael Nadal (Spain), a fellow competitor and winner of 22 Grand Slam titles, said in an interview yesterday, ‘For me, Djokovic not playing is sad news. It is unfortunate that the best players in the world are unable to play due to injuries or other reasons. I have also been unable to participate in important matches due to injury.
Not only the fans but also the players will find it difficult for great players like Djokovic not to play in Grand Slams. Because we want the best players to stand on the field. Disappointing in that sense. “But the good news is that after me, after Djokovic, after Roger Federer, tennis will be and will continue,” he said. Russian star Daniil Medvedev also said that it was very disappointing that Djokovic did not play.
