Indian Wells and Miami petitioned for exemption for Djokovic due to no 'imminent danger with him playing', decision due next week
ATPFriday, 03 March 2023 at 21:41
According to the Miami Herald Djokovic's being allowed to play in Indian Wells and Miami will happen next week with the Serbian still unaware of what will happen.
Djokovic will contest the Dubai semi-final later today against Medvedev but he doesn't know whether he'll be able to play in Miami and Indian Wells in March. The Serbian confirmed to media that he doesn't still know what will happen as he hasn't heard anything regarding his application for exemption.
According to the Miami Herald, the decision should happen early next week with no indication of how might go. The ban preventing Djokovic from entering the US will be lifted in a few months which means that his participation in Cincinnati and the US Open later this year is not in doubt.
