Novak Djokovic ’s wife Jelena launched a staunch defence of her husband amid anti-vaccine claims surrounding him. The Serbian’s family were overjoyed as he successfully won the Wimbledon title once again and claimed his 21st major title in the process.
He defeated Nick Kyrgios in four sets on Centre Court to seal one of the most important Grand Glam wins of his career, given he will be unable to compete at the US Open starting next month. The former world number one is still refusing to take the coronavirus vaccine and it remains a requirement in order to enter the United States.
This was explained by tennis journalist Ben Rothenberg who said it would be the Serbian's final major of the year due to his decision to remain un-jabbed, before labelling him an "anti-vax posterboy". Jelena, Novak's wife of eight years, responded in anger over the remarks.
