Reuters first to report Novak Djokovic denied entry to Australia, seeking injunction to stop deportation

Reuters was first to report that Novak Djokovic, the No. 1 tennis star in the world, was denied entry into Australia on Thursday after initially being granted a medical exemption for the country’s COVID-19 vaccination requirements so that he could play in the Australian Open. The tennis star, left stranded at Melbourne’s Tullamarine airport overnight, was issued a letter by the Australian government saying his visa had been denied and he would be deported.
