Novak Djokovic is set to play at the US Open for the first time in two years after the Senate voted to lift Covid-19 restrictions in the United States.
Djokovic hasn’t competed in the final major of the year since 2021, where he lost to Daniil Medvedev in the final, so missed out on completing the calendar Grand Slam.

The USA had declared that international visitors needed to show proof of having a vaccine against coronavirus, but Djokovic has not had the jab.

Last week, the Senate voted and passed a bill to end the Covid-19 public health emergency, which is expected to be signed by President Joe Biden.
Earlier this month, Djokovic told CNN he was keen to return to Flushing Meadows this year.
“I really want to be playing there, want to be there,” he said.
