Dozens of supporters welcomed tennis world champion Novak Djokovic at Belgrade airport on Monday after his Australian visa was withdrawn, denying him the opportunity to take part in the Australian Open without being vaccinated.

Groups of supporters could be seen at the airport, some wrapped in Serbian flags or cheering while waving them. Security forces and journalists were also present to accompany Djokovic's welcoming.

The tennis star, who was detained on Saturday, was ultimately deported on Sunday after the Australian Supreme Court made a final ruling preventing the unvaccinated tennis player from playing in the Australian Open.
