Djokovic will "wait and see" if he plays Australian Open after tournament announces vaccine mandate

Top-ranked Novak Djokovic says he's going to have to "wait and see" if he plays the Australian Open after tournament chief Craig Tiley confirmed that everyone who attends the first Grand Slam tennis tournament of 2022 will need to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 — including all the players.

Djokovic, a nine-time Australian Open champion, has refused to say if he's vaccinated — or if he intends to get vaccinated.

"We'll see. We'll have to wait and see," Djokovic said after getting beat by Alexander Zverev in the semifinals of the ATP Finals on Saturday — marking his final match on tour this year.
