Novak Djokovic said he is willing to forgo the French Open and Wimbledon this year if vaccination against COVID-19 continues to be a requirement for participation.
In an interview with the BBC, the Serbian tennis star confirmed that he has not yet had the vaccine, although he is “keeping [his] mind open.”
But when asked specifically if he was prepared to skip the next two majors, Djokovic said, “Yes, that is the price that I'm willing to pay.”
“Because the principles of decision making on my body are more important than any title or anything else,” Djokovic told the BBC.
