BELGRADE – Novak Djokovic has said he would be against a compulsory coronavirus vaccination if it became a requirement for  tennis players to travel to tournaments.

“Personally I’m against vaccination. I wouldn’t like that someone forces me to get a vaccine in order to be able to travel,” the world number one said late  Sunday.

The Serbian star was speaking from Spain, where he is in lockdown with his family, in a video conference held on his Facebook for Orthodox Easter.

“We (players) will have to travel. I think it will be the number one challenge,” the 32-year-old said.

“If it (vaccination) will become compulsory what will happen? I will have to take a decision,” on whether to get a vaccine or not, he said.
