He wrote on Twitter alongside a picture of him on the court: “I’m pleased and grateful that the Judge overturned my visa cancellation. Despite all that has happened, I want to stay and try to compete @AustralianOpen. I remain focused on that.“For now, I cannot say more but THANK YOU all for standing with me through all this and encouraging me to stay strong.”
"We are yet to hear all that he has experienced. And of course, he stood against the system and against the government as he deemed he had a full right to be there with the visa he had been granted. He went there to win the tournament." “I think this is a huge win for Novak and for his family and the whole free world. We’re all human beings and we have the right to say what we think and not to suffer consequences for expressing an opinion.”Novak Djokovic's former tennis coach on Monday said he expects the No 1 player to come back "even stronger".
