No unvaccinated person is allowed into Canada, and the same rules also apply in the United States. If they do not change before the US Open, which begins on August 29, the former world number one will not be able to play the last grand slam tournament of the year.
The 35-year-old Serbian recently wrote on social media that he would prepare for the US Open as if he were going to play, pending definitive word on entry to the United States.
“I’m crossing my fingers,” Djokovic wrote.
Djokovic missed the year’s first grand slam tournament, the Australian Open, because he refuses to be vaccinated against covid-19. He was allowed to play the French Championships, where he reached the quarter-finals, and Wimbledon, where he won.
