Novak Djokovic cannot travel to the United States under the Foreign Traveler Policy as this remains the case unvaccinated against the coronavirus.
Consequently, the Serbian tennis player was banned from Indian Wells and the Miami Open. Speak with However, CNN clarified that it was a conscious decision that he has no regrets.
“I do not regret it. I’ve learned from life that regrets hold you back only back and basically lets you live in the past.
I don’t want to do that. Also, I don’t want to live too far into the future. I want to be in the present but naturally think about the future, create a better future.
At the same time, it’s a conscious decision I made and I knew there was always a chance I wouldn’t play. It’s the current situation that I hope will change for the US Open later this year. For me, this is the most important tournament on American soil.”
