The Pole competed in 25 events last during 2017 with six wins on tour and two Challenger Finals; but in November of that same year, he was forced to undergo knee surgery and since then he has been attempting a comeback.
He has tried previously to return to the tour including Challenger tournaments in his home country but after playing in an exhibition match on Saturday; he announced he may travel to Australia and with having a protected ranking enter qualifying.
If he does not make it to Australia, he will likely play in a tournament in the weeks after; but it is good news for fans of the three-time ATP finalist.
