The drama over Djokovic's ability to defend his Australian Open title without a COVID-19 vaccine has sparked fierce public debate, but there’s little sign it threatens his multimillion-dollar sponsorship deals. It's unclear if the No. 1 seed can compete Monday, Jan. 17 after Australian officials revoked his visa for a second time. (AP Photo/Mark Baker, File)
