Even better and to add to my previous comments on the alleged timeline of events...

Suppose he was trying to game the system by declaring a positive test for Covid pre tourney to have the exemption, then the least you can do is "act sick" and self isolate instead of galavanting all through the Xmas period going to social events etc... Then posting about it on social media 😂

The shit he was allegedly doing is the same shit that has gotten Boris Johnson in trouble too... Nobody likes a rulebreaker when they had to abide by it themselves

Djokovic Covid timeline: Did he break rules after testing positive?

Novak Djokovic sought a medical exemption from Australia's strict Covid visa regulations on the basis that he'd contracted the infection in December.

There is now a focus on whether the tennis star broke the rules in his home country Serbia, with people highlighting several public engagements he apparently attended in the days following his positive test.

Mr Djokovic was tested in Serbia, where you are legally required to isolate for 14 days following a positive Covid test.

Here is a timeline of events from what we know so far.

14 December: Attends basketball game
Mr Djokovic attended a Euroleague basketball game in the Serbian capital, Belgrade, between Red Star Belgrade and Barcelona.

After the game, numerous people who attended tested positive for Covid-19, so it is possible this is where Mr Djokovic became infected.

16 December: Positive Covid test
In court documents, Mr Djokovic's lawyers submitted evidence that confirms he took a PCR test just after 13:00 on 16 December.

The document from the Institute of Public Health of Serbia states the result came back positive seven hours later, at about 20:00 on the same day.

It is unclear whether Mr Djokovic was told he had Covid at that point.

During a press conference held by the Djokovic family in Belgrade on 10 January, his brother was asked: "Is it true that on 16 December he [Novak] tested positive and he knew he was positive with Covid?"

His brother responded: "Yes, the whole process was public and all the documents that are public are legal."

Mr Djokovic attended a panel discussion and a ceremony for the unveiling of a stamp in his honour in Belgrade on 16 December (before 20:00), which he posted about on Twitter the next day.

17 December: Award ceremony
On the morning of 17 December, the Tennis Association of Belgrade posted on Facebook about an award ceremony at the Novak Tennis Center in Belgrade which was happening later that day.

They said the trophies would be "handed over to the young talent by the favourite tennis player of this region, and beyond".

Later that day, a series of pictures was posted on the same Facebook page of Mr Djokovic presenting awards without a mask.

18 December: Photography session
It has been reported by French newspaper L'Equipe that Mr Djokovic attended a photo shoot with one of their photographers on 18 December.

He posed with the newspaper's Champion of Champions trophy - an award which recognises the outstanding sportsperson of the year.

The paper says he wore a face mask during an interview, but removed it for the photo shoot.

22 December: Negative Covid test
In the court documents provided by Mr Djokovic's lawyers, there is confirmation that he had another PCR test on 22 December.
This test came back negative at 16:15 the same afternoon.
Serbian Covid regulations require a full 14-day isolation period, so Mr Djokovic's quarantine would have ended on 30 December.

25 December: Street tennis in Belgrade
Mr Djokovic was pictured playing tennis in the streets of Belgrade over the Christmas period.
A fan tweeted a video of the outing on 25 December, which was also reported in several tennis publications in the days following.
The video was caption: "Novak Djokovic, playing tennis on Christmas Day in Belgrade... Footage from today!"
On the same day, Mr Djokovic was also pictured posing with Serbian professional handball player, Petar Djordjic, in Belgrade.

31 December: Tennis practice in Spain
On 31 December, pictures and video was shared online that appear to show Mr Djokovic was in Spain on that date.

A tennis academy based in Sotogrande, Spain (near Marbella) tweeted a video of Mr Djokovic training, as well as several pictures of him meeting fans.

5 January: Arrived in Australia
Mr Djokovic landed at Melbourne airport late on 5 January.

This is where he was quizzed by border officials and his visa was cancelled after he confirmed he wasn't vaccinated.

In Mr Djokovic's Australian travel entry form - released by the federal court - it is stated that he has not travelled anywhere else in the 14 days prior to his arrival there.

The Australian media has reported that border officials are now investigating if this form included an incorrect declaration,
although this has not been confirmed by the country's border force.

The key info here is that he was in both Serbia and Spain allegedly (but there's photographic proof lol) in the 14 days leading up to coming to Australia, yet his paperwork stated the contrary.

What's most likely to happen is that the Aussie authorities will jump on that [error/oversight/omission/blatant lie] to get him the fuck outta there

He'll cite that he didn't fill in his own travel docs e.g. Family member, agent etc did it so thought it was correct to make him seem "innocent" amongst his supporters

Ah well, guess he should of watched the warning promo vidz given to all the Indians, Afghans Pakistanis etc 🙂

Told you he'd go this route of blaming paperwork on others 🤥 😂

And even worse is that he's fucked it up for other players and officials too. The man's eternal quest for love and acceptance within tennis is just turning him into the most hated... I love it. Long may that dickhead continue being the villain.
