Australia has revoked Novak Djokovic's visa again, with Immigration Minister Alex Hawke saying Friday that he’d used his ministerial discretion to cancel the top-ranked men’s tennis player’s visa on “health and good order grounds, on the basis that it was in the public interest to do so.”

His action came just three days before the start of the Australian Open. Djokovic, who is unvaccinated against Covid-19, is again facing deportation due to Australia’s strict vaccination rules. His attorneys are expected to appeal in court.
