MELBOURNE : World number one Novak Djokovic will play the late match of the evening session at Rod Laver Arena against fellow Serb Miomir Kecmanovic when the Australian Open starts on Monday, pending a court decision.

Hawke used discretionary powers to cancel the Serb's visa for a second time on the grounds he was a threat to public order because his presence would encourage anti-vaccination sentiment. Djokovic's match will follow home favourite Ash Barty's opener against Ukraine's Lesia Tsurenko on Rod Laver Arena's centre court, according to the order of play released on Sunday.
