There were doubts if he would even make it to the court after injury concerns but Novak Djokovic is back at the Australian Open with a spine-tingling reception to boot.
The winner of nine titles in Melbourne, the Serbian was deported in 2022 in a worldwide saga relating to his choice not to have the COVID-19 vaccination.
But with a new government, the ban as a result was rescinded and he was free to return and made his return to competitive action in Australia.
Full of Djokovic fans but also slightly in the under current of potentially being kicked out for booing Djokovic in a rule implemented by the tournament but still he is back and raring to go.

- Must be okay to do this because WTA apparently could care less. They seem to be even more distant since the Saudi's filled their personal bank accounts. This particular smashing was extreme... and in front of so many little children who (unfortunately in some cases) look up to these players.
mandoist02-05-2024 - Unfortunately the WTA & ITF Fat-Cats are comfortable lounging in their elite surroundings and do not hear anything they do not wish to hear. Not to mention how any compassion, concerns, or sensibility toward the general overall health of players likely went away with their filthy Saudi pocket money.mandoist02-05-2024
