Novak Djokovic still feels trauma when he travels to Australia because of his deportation in 2022

Novak Djokovic said he still feels “a bit of trauma” when he travels to Australia, stemming from his deportation in 2022 because he was not vaccinated against COVID-19. “The last couple of times that I landed in Australia, to go through passport control and immigration, I had a bit of trauma from three years ago,” Djokovic said in an interview with Melbourne’s Herald Sun newspaper published Monday, ahead of the Australian Open. “And some traces still stay there when I’m passing passport control, just checking out if someone from immigration zone is approaching.”
