An Australian appeals court will hear arguments in Novak Djokovic's visa cancellation case on Sunday.
Why it matters: The unvaccinated tennis player faces possible deportation from Australia after officials revoked his visa for a second time on Friday, citing public health interests. He is set to play his first match in the Australian Open on Sunday.
- In Australia, deportation can lead to a three-year re-entry ban depending on the case, AP reports.
- Djokovic is expected to remain in immigration detention as the legal proceedings play out.
