We have no way of knowing whether or not Mr Novak Djokovic, Serbia’s global tennis talisman would have won the Australian Open this year. He has made an unforced error not on the tennis court but outside it. He has won the Australian Open nine times, French open twice, Wimbledon six times and US open three times bringing his total grand slam haul to 20. Djokovic’s iconoclastic behaviour on the COVID-19 pandemic is inexplicable, though not excusable. If Australian society won, Djokovic lost.
