Novak Djokovic may be barred from French Open too?

"This will apply to everyone who is a spectator or a professional sportsperson. And this until further notice," the French ministry said, via ESPN.

"Now, as far as Roland Garros [the French Open] is concerned, it's in May. The situation may change between now and then and we hope that it will be more favourable. So we'll see, but clearly there's no exemption." 

Djokovic has made headlines over the last couple of weeks not for his tennis abilities, but for his refusal to get vaccinated against COVID-19 and his efforts to participate in international events without being inoculated. He was initially held up at the Australian border for not having a legitimate exemption from being vaccinated and then after appealing that decision was still kicked out of the country again for not meeting vaccination requirements.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has publicly criticized Australia for deporting Djokovic, saying the tennis star was subject to "intellectual torment" and that he is always welcome in his native country regardless of his vaccination status. 

It's likely Vucic will speak out against the French ministry if Djokovic can't participate in the French Open next spring, so no one should be surprised if Djokovic continues to make headlines for what he does off the court instead of what he can do on it.
