Nick Kyrgios has urged Australian government officials to allow Novak Djokovic to play at the 2023 Australian Open.
The native Australian supported Djokovic throughout his controversy last year, stating how he wasn't treated fairly in light of the fact that he is one of the best players ever. Djokovic was deported as a result of his visa being revoked last year.
Because of this, he is prohibited from entering the nation for at least three years until his visa is reinstated. Reporters from Australia said that ought to take place, and Kyrgios hopes that it happens because the sport needs him.
"I hope he is here, for the sport. We
just saw one of the legends leave the sport, Roger, and that’s going to
be some shoes that no one is ever going to be able to fill" explained Kyrgios adding:
“While Novak and Rafa [Rafael Nadal] are still around, we need these types of players. Otherwise, the people of Australia love the AO, Ash Barty brought us crowds, me and Thanasi [Kokkinakis] won it. We want to see the best players in the world there. Me being a competitor, I want to see Novak there.“
