Novak Djokovic could be barred from French Open as France pass new vaccine law

Novak Djokovic could be barred from playing in the French Open as things stand now after the Sports Ministry said on Monday there would be no exemption from France's new vaccine pass law.


France's vaccine pass law, approved by parliament on Sunday, will require people to have a certificate of vaccination to enter public places such as restaurants, cafes, cinemas and long-distance trains.

"The rule is simple. The vaccine pass will be imposed, as soon as the law is promulgated, in establishments that were already subject to the health pass," the ministry said.

"Now, as far as Roland Garros is concerned, it's in May. The situation may change between now and then and we hope that it will be more favourable. So we'll see, but clearly there's no exemption."

prison. We was out and about giving press conferences, taking photos with children, older people, etc. while positive, so he broke the lockdown law in Serbia.

Of course they won't do anything to the home hero in Serbia, but if the law was the same for everyone, that is what he would be facing.

In 20 years, Djokovic will be the next dictator of Serbia, write that down. He has all the attributes that make a dictator.
