On the afternoon of 16 January, the Federal Court of Australia announced the final decision – Djokovic lost the case and his visa was cancelled. This is the final result of the first five sets of the Australian Open, which means that Djokovic did not have the opportunity to participate in the Australian Open that opened on the 17th.
This protracted farce has finally come to an end, and the plot is comparable to a suspense drama, with many reversals.
Let's review the whole process of Djokovic's five-game war with the Australian government:
First set: Djokovic announced immunity, swept 6-0
Last November, the Australian Open announced an escalation of the epidemic prevention, and players must be vaccinated to compete. The number of exemptions is very small.
Djokovic has not previously said whether he will play at the Australian Open. On January 4, he suddenly announced on his personal social platform that he had obtained a vaccine exemption from the Australian Open and immediately flew to Melbourne to start preparing.
In this set, Djokovic chose speed to win, and behind the low-key behavior, is a high-profile announcement of the results. Without any reaction from the Australian government, he won the first set with a goodbye ACE egg delivery.
Second set: The Australian Border Agency announced the withdrawal of the German visa, 6-0 also in color
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison woke up in a dream, first strongly condemning Djokovic's act of entering the country without vaccination, and strongly saying that there were no exceptions.
Then Djokovic landed as soon as he was treated by the Border Agency's small black house. On January 5, before Djokovic could recover, the Border Agency announced that djokovic visas had been revoked.
In this game, the Australian government also made a quick time, Morrison's momentum + a series of divine operations of the Border Bureau, did not let Djokovic get a set and break point, and sent eggs back to Djokovic 6-0.
In the third set, Djokovic appealed successfully, and won the standard score 6-4
Through the competition of the first two sets, the two sides engaged in a tug-of-war, and no one dared to take it lightly.
Djokovic used capital tactics to assemble a strong team of lawyers to appeal the Border Agency's announcement of the decision.
When the score was 4-4, the border bureau's procedural loopholes were caught by Djokovic's team, who were ruthlessly broken by Djokovic in the 9th set and eventually lost the third set 4-6 standard.
On January 10, Djokovic, who won the case, released good news on social platforms, and his "think tank" family staged a drama of the hero's return, turning the conference into a winning battlefield.
In order to make up for the details of the error in filling in the information, Deyo deliberately sent an apology letter on the social platform, saying that the information was filled in by the assistant, which was a pure hand error.
In the fourth set, Australia once again announced the withdrawal of the German visa, and the 7-6 (0) rush to grab the seventh set suddenly
Djokovic trained for two days at the Australian Open.
On January 13, the Australian Open held a draw ceremony, and the top seed Djokovic fell in the 1/4 zone, against the big seed Beretini. The result of this draw is almost copied and pasted from last year's US Open, and the order of the match against the big seeds is Beretini, Zverev Jr. and Medvedev. It's just that Zverev Jr. is in the same 2/4 zone as Nadal.
On January 14, Australian Immigration Minister Hawke abruptly announced the cancellation of Djokovic's visa for the second time. This wave came particularly suddenly, originally Deyo was in an all-round advantage, and at 5-0, the other side suddenly threatened, and was chased by the Australian government for 6 consecutive sets to enter the seventh. In the seventh, Djokovic had no intention of fighting, swallowed the egg again, and the two sides returned to the balance of power.
In the fifth set, Deyo's appeal failed, and the Australian government broke through 6-0
Djokovic once again resorted to capital tactics, assembling a strong team of lawyers to appeal the second announcement.
This time, the Australian government learned from the experience of the third set, and Hawke declared that it was in the public interest to do so, and that djokovic, who had not been vaccinated, could pose a threat to the health and order of the Australian public.
On January 16, after a lengthy hearing, the three members unanimously ruled that Deyo lost the case.
Djokovic's australian open trip came to an end, and his signing will be replaced by a lucky loser.
