Completely irrational response as their anger should be directed not towards player but own government that imposed draconian measures unheard of in western democracy.
I take issue with the term “mistreatment”. As an overseas Australian whose family members want to come here and back (and v.v.), and even whose Matriarch has complied with the vaccination requirement against her personal preferences, I want Djokovic to be made an example of.

My city of residence has to comply with national policy, close its borders, badger its airline out of existence and restrict where I work and where I eat dinner because it does not believe living with covid works for it. I have a double vested interest to show a vaccinated living with covid policy works.
