Novak Djokovic's position on vaccination has cost him participation in this year's Australian Open, where he would have also defended the title, but that did not shake him, and the Serbian tennis player did not change his position. Moreover, he has said that he is ready to give up all trophies if vaccination is mandatory.

Some tournament officials have decided to accommodate him and not ask for him to get vaccinated, so Djokovic will already be able to play in Dubai, where he is currently located, and in addition to that tournament, he will also be able to play in Rome, to where the Italians have effectively invited him with open arms.

On the other hand, there was a question about Djokovic's participation in the Grand Slams, the French Open is still not certain, because although they initially said he would be able to compete, that decision has been withdrawn and vaccination is mandatory for now, so this tournament remains under the question mark, at least at this point, although it is still a few months away.

However, as things stand, Novak Djokovic will be able to play and defend his title won at Wimbledon, because as Tim Henman pointed out, the tournament will follow government recommendations, and only an antigen test will be needed to participate rather than mandatory vaccination.

The last Grand Slam of the year, the US Open, is quite far away, so it is difficult to judge what will happen by then.

Either way, the Serbian still has great opportunities to write new pages in this sport and become the greatest of all time.
