Czech tennis player Renata Voracova has been detained by Australian Border Force officials and asked to leave the country.

A source familiar with the case said the Czech player entered Australia with a vaccine exemption on the basis she had been infected with COVID-19 in the last six months.

This was the same reason used by Novak Djokovic.

The 38-year-old, who has already played in a warm-up tournament, is being held in the same Melbourne inner-city hotel as Djokovic.

Her visa has been cancelled but it’s not clear if she will appeal against the decision.

Border Force is also pursuing a third Australian Open participant, an official, who entered using the same vaccine exemption.

The Victorian Health Department and a Tennis Australia expert panel granted exemptions to the trio because the panels believed a prior infection warranted an exemption.

However, the federal government informed Tennis Australia in November it would not allow international arrivals to bypass vaccine requirements on this basis.
