 Welcome back to Tender's Talk, my name's Cam Williams and Novak Djokovic has broken his silence about participating in next year's Australian Open. Actually came out in an interview recently talking about whether or not he was actually going to play at the Australian Open next year. Let's go over and read what he had to say. So this is what Djokovic's statement was, just a sport tool. When it comes to Australia, there are some positive signs, but unofficially, we are communicating through my lawyers in Australia. In fact, they are communicating with the authorities in charge of my case. I hope to have an answer in the next few weeks, whatever that answer might be, but of course I am hoping for a positive one, so that I have enough time to prepare for the start of the season if that start is going to happen in Australia. I really want to go there. I am over what happened this year, and I just want to play tennis. It is what I do best. Australia has always been the place where I have played my best tennis. The results speak for themselves, so I am always extra motivated to go there, this time even more so. I'm hoping for a positive answer. But the choices I made, I knew there would be certain consequences like not going to America, and that is it. For Australia, it was a different case. I had the exception, but in the end, it did not work out. We know what happened. Let's not go back. This time I am waiting for the permission again. It is a good thing that they have now opened the borders for unvaccinated foreigners travelling to Australia. I have that ban. I hope it will be lifted. As I said, it is not in my hands. I hope the people in the Australian government will give me a positive answer. That is all. So there you have it, Djokovic speaking out about travelling to Australia next year, and whether or not he will play the Australian open, and he does want to play the Australian open. I think that is a positive. He is not sort of burned by what happened this year in turning his back on Australia or the Australian open itself. He wants to play there, and of course, he is one of their best champions. He is one of the best Australian open players of all time. He is his best grand slam, and of course, playing for history, he didn't get to play two of the four slams this year, and the two that he did, he only lost to Rafa, and he won the other ones. But let me know down in the comments below. Do you think he will get into the Australian open next year and play the Australian open next year? Because, of course, he has to get approval. The three-year ban has to be overturned by the government. But we're going to keep you up today with everything that we hear from the politicians who are making the decisions on Djokovic's case. But I'm optimistic, and I hope he can play next year. But let me know down in the comments below. Do you think he will be playing at the Australian open in 2023?
