NOVAK DJOKOVIC has withdrawn from Indian Wells after his waiver to enter the United States has been denied.
The Serbian legend had applied for special permission to be allowed into the country due as he is not vaccinated.

The US remain tough on laws to prevent the spread of Covid-19 and require all visitors to show proof of a jab until at least April 10.
Djokovic missed last year’s US Open because of his vaccination status and as the ATP Tour heads to America again he faces a battle with the same problem.
The 35-year-old missed the Australian Open in 2022 and after landing in the country, he ended up being deported after being held in isolation.
The Indian Wells tournament held in California is one of tennis’ biggest outside the four Grand Slams.
