Novak Djokovic is slated to play Miomir Kecmanović in the opening round of next week’s Australian Open
SYDNEY—Novak Djokovic is slated to play fellow Serb Miomir Kecmanović in the opening round of next week’s Australian Open, although the defending champion’s participation remains in doubt as the government considers canceling his visa for a second time.
On Thursday, the No. 1 men’s tennis player and 20-time major winner was waiting to hear whether immigration minister Alex Hawke would use his power to cancel his visa as matchups for the first major tennis tournament of the year were made, although slightly later than scheduled. Djokovic is the top seed in the tournament.
