Not on the list of players – Unvaccinated Djokovic misses US Open – Sport

  • Because he does not get vaccinated against the corona virus, Novak Djokovic is not allowed to enter the USA.
  • It is therefore clear that the Serb will miss the US Open this year.
  • After the Australian Open this year, it is the 2nd Grand Slam tournament that he is missing because of his refusal to vaccinate.

Novak Djokovic will not take part in the US Open, which begins on Monday. The Serb has to do without because of his refusal to be vaccinated. Djokovic’s absence comes as no surprise as authorities in the US require foreign citizens to provide proof of vaccinations.

Like in Australia

The 21-time Grand Slam tournament winner categorically rejects vaccination against the corona virus. Because of his attitude, Djokovic is already missing the 2nd Grand Slam tournament this year. In January, he had to leave the country before the start of the tournament at the Australian Open after a posse about his entry.

Djokovic will lose important world ranking points. Last year he reached the final in Flushing Meadows and lost there to Daniil Medvedev. Djokovic is currently in 6th place in the ATP ranking.
