The White House has just announced that as of May 11, international travelers not vaccinated against COVID will be able to enter the country freely. In this way, the number 1 in the world, Novak Djokovic will have no legal impediment to play the tournaments that will happen on American soil. This means that he will have a free hand to participate again in the Cincinnati Masters 1000 and in the US Open. We could not see him last year in these tournaments. A measure that comes just in time on the ATP calendar and that means the end of the Serb's headache.

Novak Djokovic who had been forced to skip the American tournaments, because of his vaccination status, will be able to line up for the US Open at the end of August. Reluctant to vaccination earned him expulsion from the Australian Open last year. He was until now banned from entering the United States, thus depriving him of many tournaments, including the US Open 2022.
