Novak Djokovic has experienced a lot in Australia. At the Grand Slam he has won a record ten times, he has experienced the best and the worst moments of his professional career. Even as an accomplished champion and a true legend of “white sport”, he had to spend some time in an immigration center (mildly put) during the coronavirus pandemic, where, according to him, he was literally poisoned.
After he was not allowed to defend his title that year, he returned the following year and conquered Melbourne again. And now he is at the Australian Open again and will play the final again, reaching the quarterfinals. But, in Australia, they continue to attack a champion like they will almost certainly never have again.
