A second Australian Open hopeful has had their visa cancelled and is being detained in the same detention hotel as Novak Djokovic.
Doubles player Renata Voráčová from Czech Republic was stopped by Australian Border Force officials on Thursday and taken to the Park Hotel in Carlton.
Voráčová had already competed in an Australian Open warm-up event in Melbourne.
According to the ABC it remains unclear if she will leave Australia immediately or protest the decision in court.

I'm hoping the entire Australian Open is cancelled and Dan Andrews is mercilessly mocked worldwide (Scott Morrison too.)
