Novak Djokovic got into a big controversy when he traveled to Australia. The 35-year-old went there to defend his Australian Open title. However, as per the COVID-19 guidelines, he was unable to enter the country. Later, because of his unvaccinated status, Djokovic had to return from Australia and missed the Australian Open.

While Djokovic fans were extremely unhappy, Australians were supportive of their government’s decision. Almost a year has passed now and the restrictions are not there anymore. Also, Djokovic is all set to play in the 2023 Australian Open. But are Australians happy with Djokovic getting to play? A dedicated survey accurately answers this question.

What Australians feel about Djokovic’s participation in the Australian Open 2023

Novak Djokovic got a lot of hate from the Australian citizens for challenging their government. While the majority of Australians were against allowing him to play last year, a few wanted him to be there. To be accurate, we take a look at the exclusive survey conducted by Resolve Strategic.

As per the results of the survey, earlier only 14 percent of Australians wanted Djokovic to play there, while 71 percent were against it. However, after a year and changes in the guidelines, the feelings of Aussies for Djokovic have changed significantly.
