Novak Djokovic is set to be granted a visa that will allow him to play in next year’s Australian Open after he missed the Grand Slam event in January when he was deported due his vaccination status.
According to the Associated Press, the Australian Broadcasting Corp. confirmed multiple local reports on Tuesday that the country’s immigration minister had overturned a possible three-year exclusion period from Australia for Djokovic. The office of Immigration Minister Andrew Giles declined comment on the matter to the AP, citing privacy grounds, meaning that any formal announcement on the subject would need to come from the 21-time Grand Slam champion.
