Tennis Australia said it “deeply regrets” the impact the Novak Djokovic deportation saga had on players at the Australian Open.

The tournament organizers acknowledged there were “lessons to learn”.

World number one Djokovic, who has not had a Covid-19 vaccine, was deported from Australia on Sunday after losing a last-ditch court bid to stay.

Tennis Australia said it respected the court’s decision and hoped the focus could now switch to the tennis court.
