Obviously he won

I said it from the start

Cope you fucking losers

Yeah, smelled like politicians trying to punish Djokovic to gain political capital, some sort of populism. Should cut their losses and realize that you just can't ban people for not being vaccinated. Australian Open is an international event.

I don't understand why didn't they cancel the tournament if the conditions there are so tough? If you can't organize a proper tennis tournament, just cancel the thing. Or rename the tournament the Australian Open Vaccinated Men's Singles Championship, and put it in the rules that it's an exclusive tennis private event, for vaccinated players only.

They can ban folk from entering if they dont meet their criteria and still can. That is not why it has been over turned.

Judge basically said they fucked the way went about it.

Either way it is Australia deciding. As it should be.

Sure, Australia can decide what they want. ATP can also decide to cancel the tournament because of abusive measures tainting the competition. If a competition is not longer equal chances because of political interference, you do not get to host it.

ATP can do what they want as can Australia here and not let in unvaccinated folk if they wish.

Some might see it as tainted. Majority wont and it wont move.

It doesn't matter if the majority will see it that way or not. It is tainted and influenced by politics if Djokovic is banned because some politician says so. It's a fact.

You can ignore it, sure, and move on. The same way people ignore many things that are unfair.

Does matter what majority want and their opinion on it. Maybe not to you.

If he is banned it is because Australia dont think he should be there in line with their laws. If he gets in to play then they have decided they have not applied the law correctly. Their decision.

Really they should move Wimbledon for cancelling 2020 and any tournament where players test positive and have to withdraw are tainted by politicians.

Wasting my breath as usual, or my fingers in this case. Carry on. It's like talking to a brick wall. :lol:

You are the one that cant seem to grasp that this is not about the claim 'Australia cant ban people that are unvaccinated'.

That is not why Djokovic has been allowed in.

So the guy's lawyers pull out a medical certificate attesting to the fact Djokovic was declared Covid-19 positive on the 16th of December.

But the player was seen at media events on the same day and the day after, not wearing a mask and being surrounded by kids, in an enclosed space.

The idiot is clearly lying.
