Well, unvaccinated foreigners aren't allowed. Doesn't sound open to me.USO is very much open. I haven’t heard any policy from the federation.

It's not the fault of other players though. I don't think anyone is surprised that from all players in the tour, Djokovic is the only one who made a problem from this situation.Well, unvaccinated foreigners aren't allowed. Doesn't sound open to me.
Point is, it's not an open slam.It's not the fault of other players though. I don't think anyone is surprised that from all players in the tour, Djokovic is the only one who made problems.
Why not? The players are equal, they all get the choice.Point is, it's not an open slam.

Australian judge Anthony Kelly reinstated tennis star Novak Djokovic’s visa, which was canceled after his arrival last week because he’s unvaccinated.nypost.com
You didn't include the reason the judge reinstated his visa (Djoko wasn't given enough time to contact his lawyers):

Judge reinstates Djokovic's visa, orders release
Novak Djokovic on Monday won a court battle to stay in Australia to contest the Australian Open despite being unvaccinated against COVID-19, but the government threatened to cancel his visa a second time.www.espn.com
The article says that judge Kelly just noted that Djokovic had provided officials at Melbourne's airport with a medical exemption given to him by Tennis Australia and two medical panels [of Victorian state government, not the federal government].That's not the full reasoning of the judge. And it's just a newspaper report detailing the abusive process.
Even in this report, however, you'll read that the judge states that the medical exemption was valid and should have been accepted by the officials.
You obviously didn't want to either read or cite that section.
Ummm, he is being forced to take a vaccine because by definition they're not allowing him in.
Official documents are available here:
The judge did not criticise border officials for not accepting the medical exemption Djokovic provided.Did you read the part of the article that you cited where the judge criticises officials for not accepting the medical exemption Djokovic provided?
It destroys your procedural error thesis so it seems likely you didn't read it. He had a visa with medical exemption aka his documents were all in order.
There was no substantive reason to deny him entry so the cancellation of his visa was quashed.
He can play - he cannot enter the country. This slam is open and has made no statements whatsoever.Well, unvaccinated foreigners aren't allowed. Doesn't sound open to me.

It was a substantive and procedural aka complete victory
It's clear that the judge thinks they should have accepted the documents provided, and that he would have found in favour of Djokovic if the government had continued the case.
Blimey, are you still going? I hope you never sit on a jury, fact assimilation isn’t your strong point.It's clear that the judge thinks they should have accepted the documents provided, and that he would have found in favour of Djokovic if the government had continued the case.
It was a substantive and procedural aka complete victory for Djokovic. He had a visa with a valid exemption and he was free to enter the country once again.

These are all facts.
