Novak Djokovic’s decision to not get vaccinated and instead apply for a medical exemption has stirred a huge controversy. The Serbian’s visa was cancelled upon arrival in Melbourne, after failing to submit the correct documents.

Garbine Muguruza, just like several other tennis players spoke up on the situation. The two-time major champion revealed that she has no shame in disclosing her vaccination status. Moreover, she sees no point in people choosing to remain unvaccinated.

The Spaniard, who ended as the runner-up at Australian Open 2020 believes that the entire Novak Djokovic situation is not good for tennis. Nick Kyrgios, Andy Murray and Rafael Nadal were among the other tennis stars to speak up on the entire controversy.
