The 10-time Australian Open champion refused to back down from claims he made in a magazine interview that he was “poisoned” by the food he ingested in Melbourne detention three years ago.
Novak Djokovic has refused to back down from claims he made in a magazine interview that he was “poisoned” by the food he ingested in Melbourne detention during his infamous visa saga three years ago.
During his mandatory pre-tournament media conference at Melbourne Park on Friday, Djokovic was asked what evidence he had linking his allegedly heavy metal blood levels to the food he was served in hotel detention.“I’ve done that interview many months ago. I would appreciate not talking more in detail about that, as I would like to focus on the tennis and why I’m here,” Djokovic said.“If you want to see what I’ve said, and get more info on that, you can always revert to the article.
Kyrgios, who is playing the Australian Open for the first time since 2022 after battling injuries for the best part of two years, said he had no knowledge of Djokovic’s poisoning claims.“We treated him like shit, that’s for sure.” Albanese this week criticised the Morrison government’s decision to refuse him access to a religious minister while in detention.
