'I respect the Court's ruling and I will cooperate with the relevant authorities in relation to my departure from the country,' he said.
Djokovic, a 34-year-old from Serbia, said he was"extremely disappointed" by the ruling but respected it.
Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic rides in car as he leaves a government detention facility before attending a court hearing at his lawyer's office in Melbourne, Australia, on Sunday, January 16, 2022.Djokovic said he was"uncomfortable" that the focus had been on him since his visa was first canceled on arrival at Melbourne airport on January 6.The national federation that runs the tournament, Tennis Australia, said it respects the decision of the Federal Court.
But opposition spokesperson on the home affairs portfolio, Kristina Keneally, said Djokovic was being deported for what he said and did publicly overseas before the government gave him a visa in November. Within three hours of Hawke's announcement on Friday afternoon that Djokovic's visa was canceled, his lawyers went before a Federal Circuit and Family Court judge to initiate their challenge to the decision. The case was elevated to the Federal Court on Saturday and submissions were filed by both sides that same day.
Lloyd raised the example of Djokovic giving a French newspaper journalist an interview last month while he was infected with COVID-19 and taking off his mask during a photo shoot. Djokovic has acknowledged the interview was an error of judgment.
