Novak Djokovic is still awaiting word on whether he will be allowed to return to the Australian Open in January after missing the tournament this year because he is not vaccinated against COVID-19.“So I’m hoping I will get some positive news.”Djokovic is a 21-time grand slam singles champion - a total that stands second among men behind only Rafael Nadal’s 22 and one ahead of Roger Federer’s 20 - and he has won a record nine of those trophies at Melbourne Park.

Sorry, but youve to be banned for three years as part of your punishment
