Djokovic, no special permission from the USA: he will also miss the Miami tournament
[ad_1]
After Indian Wells, Novak Djokovic will not even be able to play the Masters 1000 in Miami, scheduled for next week: in fact, the Serbian has still been denied entry to the United States. The 22-time Grand Slam winner, 35, had requested special permission to enter the United States as he was not vaccinated against Covid-19. The US has extended the vaccination obligation for those coming from abroad until at least April 10.

“Obviously, we’re one of the biggest tournaments in the world, we’d like to have the best players,” Miami Open director James Blake told the Tennis Channel. “We tried to get an exemption for Novak Djokovic, but it wasn’t possible. We tried to talk to the government, but he didn’t depend on us. We tried, but he won’t be able to play.”
