Tennis star Novak Djokovic has lost his last-ditch court bid to stay in Australia and is set to be deported.
The Federal Court upheld a government decision to cancel the unvaccinated Serbian player’s visa.

Djokovic is now unable to defend his Australian Open title in Melbourne. He was due to play his first match on Monday.

Djokovic has been staying at an immigration detention hotel in Melbourne, the same place he was taken after his visa was first revoked following his arrival on 6 January.
