Senator from the U.S. state of Florida Rick Scott said that Novak Djokovic, a 22-time Grand Slam winner and six-time ATP Final Tournament winner, was denied entry into the United States.
So the 35-year-old Serb could miss two tournaments: in Indian Wells from March 6 to 19 and in Miami from March 19 to April 2.

I have just been informed that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has denied Novak Djokovic's request for a vaccine waiver, making him ineligible for Indian Wells and Miami. Joe Biden should fix this now, grant the waiver and allow him to compete in the States.
