S02E21: Novak Djokovic v/s Australia | COVID Vaccinations in Sport | Omicron vs Elite Sports

All About Sports - The Podcast

As with every industry across the globe, the sports world is continuing to learn how to manage the COVID-19 pandemic. And this year's Australian Open has brought this to light with its ongoing saga with Novak Djokovic, whose visa has once again been revoked!

In this week's episode of All About Sports, we cover the intricacies of managing player, fan, and national expectations through the pandemic. With Djokovic's decision to not get vaccinated (with an apparent medical exemption), what is the right approach for sporting events and teams when it comes to the vaccine? Should it be enforced across sports? And who's to blame for the disconnect between Djokovic and the Australian government, that seems to have escalated to an uncomfortable political feud between Serbia and Australia? Also, would another spike in cases and game cancellations require sports like basketball and football to hit pause again?
