Episode 2235: The Neverending (Novak) Story, Flynn & McConville On The GAA’s Qualifying School, Xhaka Does A Xhaka
The Novak Djokovic story takes another twist this morning, as an Australian minister decides to cancel his visa. Ken’s sympathy supplies are starting to run low.
Djokovic’s court is adjourned for the night.
Really sort of amazing that the government and judge seem to be accepting the time constraints of an imminent tennis tournament for the time table of a legal proceeding.
I can imagine many judges scoffing at such a consideration.
