Yesterday media reports in Serbia announced that Djokovic is close to playing at the Australian Open and the reports were followed up with interesting claims.
"Since the Australian Open organizers realized that not having the world No. 1 and the record Australian Open champion would be a major blow for the tournament, they are negotiating with the authorities to provide the Serbian tennis player a medical exemption."
According to the report by Blic, the government is 'very close' to softening their stance and allowing special rules to be implemented granting Djokovic and a couple of other players an out. The report seems to indicate that Djokovic is not the only top player unvaccinated which is another interesting claim.
Blic's report read. Also, Blic said from the sources close to the organization they learned that the Victoria government is "close to softening their stance" and allow "special rules" for Djokovic and several other top players. Blic also reported a few days ago that Djokovic would miss the ATP Cup which has also not been confirmed.
