Wimbers is Djok's only hope as French join Oz and US with Covid vaccine rule

- NEIL McLEMAN

NOVAK DJOKOVIC arrived back in Europe yesterday to learn Wimbledon could be his only chance to win his 21st Grand Slam this season.

Serbian stars left in Melbourne rallied to support the world No.1 yesterday with Lalso Djere describing his deportation as a "catastrophic situation".

But his predicament got even worse as his kit sponsors Lacoste announced they will seek talks “ASAP” to “review the events” Down Under.

The unvaccinated superstar already faces a three-year ban from Australia after becoming the first player to be thrown out of a sporting event for not taking a drug.

And now the French parliament has passed a new Covid law stating all competitors and spectators have to be double vaccinated for sporting events -without exceptions.
