DeSantis Blasts Biden For Denying Entry To World’s No. 1 Tennis Player, Floats Using Loophole To Get Him In

Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sent a letter to President Joe Biden this week urging the president to allow Novak Djokovic, the world’s top-ranked tennis player, entry into the United States so that he could compete in a tournament being held in Florida.

Djokovic played through a hamstring injury at the start of the year on his way to winning the Australian Open, the first Grand Slam event of the year.

The New York Times reported that his problems began after the injury healed as his team realized that the next two important events were in the U.S., which does not allow unvaccinated foreigners into the country. Djokovic is not vaccinated against COVID. The report noted that some pro-vaccination medical experts have concluded that the restriction is no longer necessary.
