21 Grand Slam winner Djokovic has not yet escaped due to vaccine issues. Because he was infected with new crown at the beginning of this year and concealed his itinerary, he was caught by the Australian authorities, which made him unable to enter the country in the next three years, thus losing the opportunity to participate in Australian Open . Although the Australian government has changed its term, if the new government team does not lift Novak's entry ban, he will still be unable to go to Australia to participate next year.
In response to this situation, Australian Open event director Craig Telly said: "This is not something we can lobby for. Novak and the government need to solve this problem, and then we will follow the instructions. This is definitely a matter between them, and based on the final result, we will welcome him to the Australian Open."
In addition, Telly also said that Russian and Belarusian players will be allowed to come to Melbourne next year to participate. Terry said: "But they cannot show any national elements, such as the national anthem. They need to participate in the competition as a neutral status."
In addition, early bird tickets for the Australian Open in 2023 have already started to be sold. Look at the ticket posters made by the event, the male players focused on promoting include Nadal , Kyrgos , Tsitsipas , Sina , Beretini, etc., but there is no men's singles nine-time champion Djokovic, which is not a good signal for Djokovic.
If Djokovic continues to be unable to participate in the 2023 Australian Open, it is likely that Nadal will benefit again and win the third Australian Open championship, thus bringing his Grand Slam to 23, leading Djokovic 2. Considering that both of them are coming to the end of their careers, the gap between the two Grand Slams is indeed not easy to catch up, and Djokovic is likely to lose the opportunity to compete for GOAT because of his obsession with not getting vaccinated.
