World No. 1 Novak Djokovic says he hopes Covid-19 vaccines will not be mandatory for tennis players on tour.
Speaking to reporters during this week’s Serbia Open, the 33-year-old insisted he wouldn’t reveal whether he gets a vaccine in the future and hoped receiving a jab would not be made compulsory by the sport’s governing bodies. “I don’t think it’ll come to that. I hope not, because I’ve always believed in freedom of choice,” Djokovic said, per Reuters. “And I will keep the decision as to whether I’m going to get vaccinated or not to myself,” he said.
