Djokovic 'not anti-vax' but would rather skip events than be forced into jab

Novak Djokovic was deported from Melbourne before he could defend his Australian Open title

World number one Novak Djokovic has claimed he is not anti-vaccination but would rather skip Grand Slams than be forced to get a Covid jab.

Djokovic arrived in Melbourne in January for the first Grand Slam of the year claiming he had obtained a medical exemption to enter the country without being vaccinated as he had recently recovered from Covid-19.
