The tennis world is at the moment revolving around one question: Is Novak Djokovic playing the Australian Open? According to the tournament director Craig Tiley he has received a medical exemption, but according to the Australian authorities, he will be treated as anyone else, which means, as unvaccinated, he is not allowed.
The medical exemption (in a country that has had perhaps the strongest reaction to the pandemic) has enraged a lot of people. The rules are that all players, spectators and staff at the open must be double vaccinated — except if given an exemption — and Djokovic has consistently refused to reveal his vax status.
