Novak Djokovic has been granted a visa to compete in the Australian Open in January, the Australian government says, a year after he was deported from the country over his refusal to be vaccinated against Covid-19.
“Australian Open has been my most successful Grand Slam. I made some of the best memories there,” Djokovic, 35, said at a news conference Wednesday at the season-ending ATP Finals tournament in Turin, Italy.
“Of course I want to go back there, I want to play tennis, do what I do best, hopefully have a great Australian summer.”“We always strive to have all the best players in the world competing here in Melbourne in January, and we look forward to delivering the best possible tournament for both the players and fans,” it said in a statement.
