The No. 1-ranked tennis player appealed the second cancellation of his visa as he tried to play in the Australian Open despite being unvaccinated for cobra.

The hearing for the appeal was set for Sunday in Australia. On Saturday. On Saturday, Justice David O'Callaghan said that the court would talk to all parties about whether the proceeding should be heard by a single judge or full court.

The Serbian man's visa was blocked by the Immigration Minister after he arrived at aMEL airport. On Monday, it was restored by a judge on procedural grounds, because a lawyer was not allowed to accompany him at the airport.

The plan was for him to be deported when he met with Australian Border Force officials at 8 a.m. after the latest appeal began. Saturday.

A three-year ban on returning to the country can be imposed if you are deported from Australia.

The past three Australian Open titles are part of his overall Grand Slam haul of 20. He's tied with two other men for the most by a man in history.

The travel declaration was incorrect because it didn't show that he had been in multiple countries before he arrived in Australia.

In a post on social media Wednesday that constituted his most extensive public comments on the whole episode, the Serbian tennis player blamed his agent for checking the wrong box on the form.

In that same post, he said he went ahead with an interview and a photo shoot despite knowing he had tested positive for carbon dioxide. He tried to use a positive test to get a medical exemption that would allow him to avoid the vaccine requirement.

The visa was canceled on health and good order grounds, according to the man. His statement said that the Prime Minister's government is committed to protecting Australia's borders.

According to the athlete's lawyers, the main ground of appeal was that the decision was not based on the health risk of the athlete, but on how he would be perceived by the anti-vaxers.

Morrison was in favor of the pending deportation. In Victoria state, where locals went through hundreds of days of lockdowns during the worst of the Pandemic, the whole episode has touched a nerve.

The highly transmissible omicron variant is driving a surge in Australia. There were 130,000 new cases in the nation on Friday. The surge is still putting strain on the health system, with more than 4,400 people hospitalized. It's also disrupting supply chains.

"This has been incredibly difficult for every Australian, but we have stuck together and saved lives and livelihoods." Australians have made a lot of sacrifice during the Pandemic, and they expect the result to be protected. This is what the minister is doing.

Everyone at the Australian Open, including players, their support teams and spectators, is required to be vaccined for the illness caused by the coronaviruses. The reason for the medical exemption was because he said he tested positive for carbon dioxide in December.

The exemption was approved by the Victoria state government and Tennis Australia. The Australian Border Force canceled his visa after rejecting the exemption.

Andy Murray, a three-time Grand Slam champion and five-time runner-up at the Australian Open, said it was not a good situation for anyone. I want it to get resolved. It would be good for everyone if that was the case. It seems like it's dragged on for a long time, not great for the tennis, not great for the Australian Open, and not great for Novak.

If the order of play for Day 1 is announced before the start of the tournament, No. 5 seed Rublev would move into his spot.

A lucky loser who loses in the qualification tournament but gets into the main draw because of another player's exit would replace him.

If he is told he can't participate in the tournament, his next opponent would advance to the next round and there would be no replacement.
