    Stern face... The Serbian star made the admissions in an Instagram post to clarify "ongoing misinformation" about his movements. He has been included in the draw for the Australian Open and is hoping he will be allowed to play next week but that remains to be seen... Image Credit: AFP

    Under pressure... If he is allowed to compete and goes on to win the tournament which would be his 21st Grand Slam - he would overtake Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal to become the most successful male tennis player in history... Image Credit: AFP

    No laughing matter... Australians are not happy with the unvaccinated anti-vax tennis player and have questioned how it is possible that he is allowed into the country to ply his trade and wander freely while Australian police, doctors, nurses and many others are being sacked for a similar stance...
