Djokovic will need to be vaccinated to play Australian Open: Minister

More than 65 percent of players on the professional men's ATP tour are vaccinated and at least 60 percent on the women's WTA circuit, according to recent media reports.

All players who want a visa to compete in the Australian Open will need to be fully vaccinated for Covid-19, the country's immigration minister said on Wednesday, putting Novak Djokovic's title defence and Grand Slam record bid in doubt.
