Tennis world number one Novak Djokovic has made a volte face on taking the COVID-19 vaccine jab.
He will take it soon, according to his biographer Daniel Muksch, in a report by The Sun.
Djokovic reportedly changed his mind after watching Rafa Nadal become the most successful player in the history of men’s professional tennis by winning the Australian Open and the 21st Grand Slam title.
The World No1 sensationally missed the tournament Down Under after being booted out of the country over his vaccine stance.
Now, according to Muksch, the Serbian star will have the vaccine so as not to miss out on winning more Grand Slams.
Speaking on Servus TV, as translated by SportsKeeda, Muksch said: “Maybe the final in Melbourne also contributed to that.
“Rafael Nadal’s 21 is driving him, no question. What you hear from his environment, I think he’s getting vaccinated.”
