The world's no. 1 tennis player, DjokerNole, cannot enter the US because he has not received the COVID-19 vaccine. After withdrawing from California's BNP Paribas Open earlier this week, his status for the Miami Open in Florida is also in danger.

Djokovic, the world No. 1 in tennis, cannot enter the U.S. because he has not received the COVID-19 vaccine, which is still required for foreigners entering the country.The Transportation Safety Administration has a rule in place requiring all entrants into the U.S. to provide"Proof of Being Fully Vaccinated Against COVID-19" before being allowed entry.
