Djokovic admits 'errors' in urgent fight to avoid deportation

23 Sept 04:33 Key points summarised by AI

Novak Djokovic admitted to "errors" in his Australian travel declaration, where his support team incorrectly stated he had not traveled in the 14 days prior to his flight.
He also acknowledged an "error of judgement" for proceeding with an interview and photoshoot with French sports newspaper L'Equipe on December 18, two days after his claimed positive COVID-19 test.
These admissions come as Djokovic battles to avoid deportation from Australia, with the Immigration Minister considering cancelling his visa again, potentially preventing him from competing for a record 21st Grand Slam.

Bai Lu meet-and-greet cancelled days after China’s safety warning

Today 15:28 Key points summarised by AI

Thailand's Tourism and Sports Minister announced the government will seek clarification from the Chinese Embassy regarding its recent travel advisory warning Chinese nationals about safety concerns in Thailand.
The travel advisory is anticipated to negatively impact the number of Chinese tourists visiting Thailand, despite recent increases in arrivals.
A meet-and-greet event featuring Chinese actress Bai Lu, a WeTV Global Ambassador, was abruptly cancelled just days after the Chinese Embassy issued its safety warning, though no official reason was provided.
The Chinese Embassy's advisory urged citizens to beware of job scams, fraudulent investments, suspicious travel arrangements, and the risk of illegal detention or being lured to the Thai-Myanmar border.
Chinese nationals were advised to verify job offers, use legitimate transport, avoid high-risk border areas, protect personal documents, and keep family informed of travel plans.
