Novak Djokovic's response to heckler's nasty attack at Australian Open is PERFECTION

Serbian superstar tennis player Novak Djokovic is no stranger to criticism. During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, he was severely ridiculed and banned from competing in several of the world’s biggest tournaments for refusing to take the vaccine.

Back in 2022, he told a BBC reporter in what’s now a famous interview that being barred from competing was “the price [he was] willing to pay” to maintain autonomy over his body.

“The principles of decision-making on my body are more important than any title,” he said confidently, despite the interviewer’s apparent disapproval.

Today, Djokovic is revered by many as an anti-vax hero.

However, there are some out there who believe in the infallibility of the vaccine and continue to condemn the athlete’s decision. This was evident during a match that took place over the weekend during the Australian Open.

Dave Rubin plays a clip of Djokovic’s response to a heckler in the crowd who brazenly shouted, “Get vaccinated!”

Without reacting, Djokovic scored what is called an ace — a serve that is hit so perfectly the opponent cannot even come close to returning it.

“That's what it's all about — standing up for what you believe and doing what you think is right,” says Dave.
