Isner also added the hashtag #science to his tweet, with which the 37-year-old apparently wanted to allude to the fact that from a scientific point of view there are no reasons against entry.
The American responded to a question from a Twitter user who wanted to know if there were active professionals who wanted Djokovic to participate. US colleague Tennys Sandgren agreed with Isner.
Djokovic had already missed the Australian Open earlier in the year for the same reason. The Masters tournaments in Cincinnati and Montreal also take place in the run-up to the last Grand Slam tournament of the year without the Serbs.
