Novak Djokovic is considered by many to be the greatest tennis player ever to compete, having won 21 Grand Slam titles during his career and holding onto the No. 1 ranking for a record 373 weeks, until finally dropping down to his current ranking of No. 6 due to his lack of participation in the Australian and Canadian Opens.

PORTSMOUTH, OH – It doesn’t make sense, but nothing the bizarre Biden bunch does makes any sense. Novak Djokovic announced ahead of the U.S. Open that he is not permitted to travel to the U.S. due to his vaccine status.  

Fox News’s Peter Doocy confronted White House Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre over the travel restrictions and tried to use reasoning and logic but to no avail. The White House parrot did her usual job of deflecting.  

Unvaccinated immigrants can cross the border into the USA, but a professional athlete on an airplane who didn’t take the experimental clot-shot cannot. 

“The U.S. Tennis Association does not have a mandate in place but said it would defer to the federal government’s policy requiring non-U.S. citizens entering the country be vaccinated against COVID-19 – a move roundly criticized on social media,” according to the Townhall. 

Djokovic tweeted: Sadly, I will not be able to travel to NY this time for US open. Thank you #NoleFam for your messages of love and support. Good luck to my fellow players! I’ll keep in good shape and positive spirit and wait for an opportunity to compete again. See you soon tennis world. 

Djokovic responded like a gracious gentleman to an unfair situation.  

How many citizens would like to wrap a tennis net around and around Team Biden and throw gelatin eggs at them for a few hours? I see most of your hands are raised.
