The American cardiologist, Doctor Peter McCullough, has defended Novak Djokovic’s position on COVID-19 vaccines, since he assures that they can cause damage to the heart. Djokovic, 35, has not been vaccinated against COVID-19 and is at risk of missing the US Open due to his vaccination status.

A work of NCAA athletes has been published on the tests that are performed routinely. Athletes have a lower rate of COVID-19 than the general student population,” added Dr. McCullough. Meanwhile, Djokovic is resting after winning Wimbledon.
Djokovic could be out until the fall, as there’s a good chance he won’t be allowed to compete at the Montreal and Cincinnati Masters, as well as the US Open.

Compared to Nadal and Federer, they might not be as vocal in stadiums, but people just know them better from years and years of watching them.
