Novak Djokovic and Naomi Osaka were the singles winner in the last Australia Open.

Novak Djokovic is still uncertain whether he will take part in the 2022 Australian Open but he will have to soon make a decision. He has repeatedly declined to reveal whether he has been vaccinated against COVID-19. All the players participating at the Australian Open must be vaccinated for January’s Grand Slam tournament chief Craig Tiley confirmed. This confirmation has piled more pressure on Djokovic, who has refused to reveal if he has been jabbed.

Naomi Osaka has recently hinted at making her come back to the tennis court. She had shared some snaps from her first practice session since Flushing Meadows. Osaka’s fans are hoping to see the two-time Australian Open champion at the ‘Happy Slam’ in 2022.

The former World No.1 is aiming to make her return to professional tennis at the Australian Open 2022. Naomi will definitely be one of the topmost contenders to win at the ‘Australian Open’, having it won in 2019 and 2021.
