Novak Djokovic says he still feels a bit of trauma when he travels to Australia. He says that stems from his deportation from the country in 2022 because he was not vaccinated against COVID-19.

Australia evokes wonderful memories for Novak Djokovic, who has triumphed 10 times during his career in Melbourne, but there are also traumas experienced in the country that the Serbian champion is still struggling to overcome. The Happy Slam has become almost a second home for Nole, highly appreciated by the entire oceanic crowd for his successes.

Novak Djokovic returns to the scene of his greatest triumphs this week at the Australian Open, adamant he is ready and able to see off the challenge from Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz in his pursuit of a record 25th Grand Slam crown.
