World No. 1 says he’s ready to “pay the price” for decision not to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

Novak Djokovic says he’s ready to miss out on the French Open and Wimbledon, and any other tennis tournament that tries to force him to get vaccinated against COVID-19. The unvaccinated world No. 1 was sent home from the Australian Open last month, despite having secured a medical exemption, after the government decided his presence would incite anti-vaxxer sentiment. In an interview with the BBC, Djokovic denied he was an anti-vaxxer and expressed support for global vaccination efforts.

Asked if he was willing to miss out on future grand slams.
