They’re detaining him and is threatening to deport him after Australias Tennis federation granted him permission to play in their Open. One of the 4 majors. The greatest tennis player in the world.

Ridiculous! But Australia has some of the strictest mandates and covid rules in the World.
... Just because the Tennis Federation granted him
the vax exemption - that don't mean that the government does.

He was told that BEFORE his flight. He decided to go anyway.
When he landed - it was either fly back out or quarantine.
Those were the two choices.

... Not sure what the issue is - though I do agree that
the heavy lockdowns are a bit much.

If you go to another a country, you are bound by their laws.

Well, that is any Country except the USA. To get in here, all you have to do is get to our Southern Border. You are then home free regardless of what our laws say.
It's almost like they wanted him to fly there under the pretense of being able to play with the exemption, and then hold him down and give him the vaccination forcibly, like they did to their own citizens. Guess cooler heads prevailed.
... No, NOT "almost like" anything... The government didn't
want him to come - if he's not vaxxed. ... It's all rather simple.

The onley "pretence" of him being able to play
came from the tennis federation.

Djokovich is a fucking idiot.

You can choose not to play.

It’s tennis that fucked up. Not Oz.
... Agreed.

... Now maybe the government will give in, and agree
to honour his vax exemption... Or IF he's still a
negative test after quarantine - then all is well.
Let him play and win the tourney.

If the US were to change its laws for the sake of one performer, you’d be losing your continence.

The choice is the Joker’s, not the government’s.

Yeah, it's kind of like Kyrie Irving in the NBA. Of course the NBA wants him to play because the guy is "box office" talent like "The Joker" is for tennis. Unfortunately, he plays for the Brooklyn Nets and NY has a vaccination mandate, and he refuses to get vaccinated. He can't play in NY or in San Fran because they have a mandate as well.

Sucks for Brooklyn because they'll probably meet Golden State in the finals, and he can't even play. Brooklyn is paying him damn near $40M this year and they can't even use him when they'll need him the most.

Edit: They are paying him a little less than half of that because they are not on the hook for paying him in missed home games or other places where vaccinations are mandated...at least he is not stuck in a hotel though. He's just chilling in his mansion with his family when he can't play.

HAHAHA
... Well, ... Australia DOES enforce border security.

Used to have a great deal with OBama for the US to take-in
what illegals come to Australia....
Then Trump ruined the agreement.
