Novak Djokovic Lands In Serbia After Being Deported From Australia
Novak Djokovic Back In Serbia ... After Getting Boot From Australia
Stick a fork in it -- Novak Djokovic's Australian Open vaccine drama is officially over for now ... as the tennis superstar landed back in Serbia after getting deported from Down Under.
34-year-old ND touched down in Belgrade on Monday and was met by a small group of fans ... with one sneaking in a selfie with the controversial player.
As we previously reported, the 9-time champ fought like hell to be able to defend his title in 2022 ... but his vaccine status eventually led to his one-way ticket outta Australia.
Now, as Novak was set to take the court on Monday ... he's back home and will be forced to watch from the couch.
While his AO hopes have disappeared, Djokovic now has the French Open to worry about in May. French officials recently announced a new law requiring the jab in order to attend sports events would not have exceptions ... meaning Novak could run into the same issue again.
Rafael Nadal -- the current #5-ranked player -- pretty much spoke for everyone in an interview with CNN over the weekend ... saying he was "tired" of the situation surrounding Djokovic, calling it a "circus."
