Florida governor offers to 'run' Novak Djokovic a boat from Bahamas so he can enter US

A Florida governor insists he would be willing to go the extra mile to have Novak Djokovic enter the US and feature at the Miami Open.

The Serbian was forced to withdraw from this month’s Indian Wells Masters due to being unvaccinated from Covid-19. The United States have yet to lift the coronavirus vaccine mandate, meaning the 35-year-old will miss the tour’s first Masters 1000 event of the year.

Djokovic has yet to officially withdraw from the Miami Open which follows Indian Wells and now Ron DeSantis, governor of the Sunshine State, stated the measures he would go to for the tennis legend to appear at the Hard Rock Stadium. "I would run a boat from the Bahamas here for him. I would do that 100 percent,” he claimed.
