Djokovic Avoids 2022 Food Poisoning Claims, Shifts Focus to Australian Open Quest. Novak Djokovic refused to elaborate on statements made in a GQ interview about food poisoning during his detention in Australia in 2022. Ahead of the Australian Open, Djokovic stated, “I would appreciate not talking more in detail about that,” emphasizing his intent to focus on tennis. Djokovic directed reporters to the article, which resurfaced online this week, for information on his claims about high levels of metals in his blood. In the GQ piece, Djokovic revisited his 2022 deportation from Australia due to his unvaccinated status, stating it impacted his health. The 37-year-old tennis star claimed he was served food in Melbourne that led to high levels of heavy metals, including lead and mercury, in his blood. Djokovic said he uncovered the health issues upon returning to Serbia but had not publicly shared the details before the interview. When asked for evidence linking the food he ate to his reported health problems, Djokovic avoided directly answering the question. Djokovic is aiming to secure his 25th Grand Slam singles title at this year’s Australian Open, with Andy Murray coaching him in Australia. His collaboration with Murray adds intrigue as Djokovic seeks to extend his dominance in tennis. As the tournament kicks off, Djokovic reiterated his preference to concentrate on the competition rather than past controversies.
