Putting your name on the entry list is one thing. Then get started for real, especially if a 14-day quarantine has to be carried out before you start, the other. It was clear that Novak Djokovic was preparing to win his ninth title in Melbourne. The world number one has never lost a final at the Australian Open, but last year he had to overcome five sets to Dominic Thiem. Of course, the Austrian will also play for the first major title in 2020 from 8 February 2020.

In fact, the top 50 players have given their names. Also Roger Federer, who remains fifth in the world rankings despite only six matches in 2020 due to the rules set by the ATP. A few days ago, in an honor in Switzerland, Federer had doubts about competing in Down Under. But in the meantime he trained in Dubai and apparently plans to compete in Australia. For Federer, as well as for all the parents who like to travel with the whole clan, the conditions in 2021 are, of course, particularly special.

Qualifying for the Australian Open will take place in Dubai in early January. Only those who succeed in this competition should also travel to Melbourne (how does that with the ATP Cup, for example in the Greek team, in which no player except Stefanos Tsitsipas is among the best 400 in the world). In any case, the organizers have already given two wild cards to the men: Australians Marc Polmans and Christopher O’Connell.
