Who are the Australian Open defending champions?
Novak Djokovic now holds a record nine Australian Open titles but his participation is in the balance as he awaits to see the results of a second order to deport him from the country, following his attempts to enter with medical exemption that was refused by the Australian Border Force.
He won his initial appeal, but the Immigration Minister Alex Hawke has revoked his visa for a second time, and his request for a judicial review was unanimously rejected and he has been deported!
On the women’s side, Naomi Osaka has spent the last year opting in and out of the tour to protect her mental health and played three matches to reach the Melbourne Summer Set 1 semi-final before pulling out to protect an injury strain.
While we can be sure of seeing Osaka walking out for the defence of her title, we cannot be sure if Djokovic will be allowed to take to the court.
