Will Novak Djokovic play in the 2022 US Open?

The US Open Tennis Championships is one of the oldest tennis championships in the world, the fourth and final Grand Slam tournament of the year. The US Open starts on the last Monday of August and continues for two weeks, with the middle weekend coinciding with the US Labor Day holiday. The 2022 US Open main draw is scheduled for August 29 through September 11, 2022. Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic is back on top of the tennis world after winning his seventh Wimbledon title on July 10. As of the time of this market's publication, Mr. Djokovic is not permitted entry into the United States because he is not vaccinated against COVID-19. As he refuses to get the vaccine, the Wimbledon champion is hopeful that US authorities will change any laws requiring COVID-19 vaccination for entry into the US in time for him to compete at the US Open. This is a market on whether Novak Djokovic will play at least one point in the 2022 US Open for the Men's Singles Tournament. If Novak Djokovic plays at least one point in the 2022 US Open and the score is 15-0, or loses one point and the score is 0-15, then this will suffice to resolve the market to "Yes.". The market cannot resolve to "Yes" until Djokovic has actually played a point. This market will resolve to “No” if the first round of the 2022 US Open Tennis Championships starts and Novak Djokovic is not listed as a participant in any matches. If Djokovic is listed as a participant but does not play a single point, the market will also resolve to "No". The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the 2022 US Open (presently found at https://www.usopen.org/index.html), however credible media sources will also suffice. If The 2022 US Open Tennis Championships are delayed beyond or otherwise have not begun by September 18, 2022, this market will resolve to 50-50.
