Tennis star Novak Djoković blows the wind in the face.

His entry as an unvaccinated person to the Australian Open brought him severe criticism, the inconsistencies in his entry documents have intensified the anti-sentiment.

But there is also support for him - not only naturally from his home country Serbia, but also from prominent athletes.

Tennis player Venus Williams wrote on the Instagram post Djoković 'when he showed himself during training in the Rod Laver Arena: "Win everything!" The court had initially denied entry to Melbourne and had his visa refunded.

The 34-year-old was also backed up outside of tennis.

Football superstar Tom Brady left it with a slim "good luck."

There was also a reaction from the former Schalke soccer professional Ivan Rakitic, the Croatian national player: "Let's go, legend, we're all with you."
