Novak Djokovic insists he holds no grudges against Australia and is still keen to return for a crack at more tennis history there next year.
The world No.1, who was deported from the country following a global drama over his vaccination status before this year's Australian Open, also talked of his delight that the refugees he shared a detention centre with briefly have now all been released.
But Djokovic revealed that, though he'd heard about the change of government in the country, he still didn't know whether his visa for Australia would be reinstated. He said:
"In terms of the government (change), yes, I heard the news, but I don't know anything about whether my visa is going to be reinstated or whether I'm going to be allowed to come back to Australia. I would like to. I would like to go there and play Australian Open. I don't hold any grudges."
He further said:
"Look, you know, it was what it was. If I have an opportunity to go back to Australia and play a place where I made the biggest success in my career in grand slams, I would love to come back. Let's see how it goes."
