Australia Has Again Revoked Novak Djokovic's Visa And Is Preparing To Deport The Tennis Star.

Australia Has Again Revoked Novak Djokovic's Visa And Is Preparing To Deport The Tennis Star.

Novak Djokovic's visa has been cancelled for the second time, and the tennis world number one will now be deported rather than defend his Australian Open title.

After winning an appeal over his deportation on Monday, Djokovic appeared to be set to stay in Australia and compete in the year's first Grand Slam.

However, using independent authorities in Australia's Migration Act, Immigration Minister Alex Hawke has cancelled the Serbian's visa once more.

In a statement, the minister said, "Today I utilized my prerogative... to cancel Mr Novak Djokovic's visa on health and good order grounds, on the basis that it was in the public interest to do so."

Djokovic can still file a court challenge to stay in the nation, but even if he is successful, he will miss the Australian Open, which begins on January 17.

Djokovic will most likely face a three-year restriction on acquiring a new Australian visa as a result of Mr Hawke's decision.

On Wednesday, the tennis star issued a statement attempting to address 'ongoing misinformation' regarding his travels and visa application, but confessed there were errors on his immigration paperwork and that he had seen a journalist despite the fact that he had not met a journalist.

The unvaccinated tennis player arrived in Australia on January 6 for the year's first Grand Slam, but was denied admittance due to concerns about the medical exemption he received prior to the competition.

Djokovic was held in a detention facility for four days before a judge overruled the ruling and ordered his release.

However, the government has not ruled out additional action, with immigration minister Chris Hawke considering intervening due to mistakes in Djokovic's application. It was also stated that the minister may revoke the Serbian's visa due to his suspected violations of different Covid guidelines.

And, in a remarkable turn of events, Australia revealed on Friday morning that Djokovic's visa had been cancelled for the second time in a week, meaning the 34-year-old will almost surely miss the Australian Open, which he has won a record nine times.
