Djokovic is given a medical exemption and will be allowed to play in the Aussie Open
This is complete and utter horseshit
They need him......
The Aussie Open ran at a $53 million loss in one of the recent years, and they had to go into their own coffers to pay it out.....
They are bending the rules here to make the competition more interesting with Djokovic competing in it, which dramatically affects the advertising costs etc etc... and the Aussie public have quite correctly gone completely ballistic about it...... threatening boycotts and all sorts...
Djokovic did not do himself any favours by previously openly stating that he would not attend this event if he was forced to get the vaccine...... then basically gloating on social media that he got a medical exemption to attend, knowing it would cause shit
Bollocks
Everything about this smells of bias, playing favourites..... money money money
Djokovic and staff is stuck at Melbourne Airport without visas and the drama is going on.
