After a controversy-filled past month, Novak Djokovic who has come down to Dubai for the Duty-free Tennis championships said that he misses Tennis.

The Serbian superstar could not play in the year's first Grand Slam after the Australian government deported him due to his vaccination status. While touring the Serbian pavilion in the Dubai Expo, the 20-time Grand Slam winner said he is excited to go out on the Tennis court next Monday. The Dubai government has not mandated the requirement of Covid-19 vaccination for playing the Tennis Tournament which is slated to begin next week.
