MOSCOW, Jan 13 Australian Open Tennis Championships organizers have postponed the draw for the tournament , which was scheduled for 07:00 Moscow time, Reuters reports. The event was postponed due to uncertainty regarding the participation of Serb Novak Djokovic in the tournament. Australian media outlets report that Immigration Secretary Alex Hawke will decide on Thursday whether to revoke the world's No. 1 visa. Jokovic arrived in Australia last week to attend the Australian Open, which kicks off January 17 in Melbourne. This year's tournament organizers require all participants to be vaccinated against coronavirus or have a medical exemption from vaccination. The unvaccinated Serb was unable to go through passport control upon arrival in the country — his visa was canceled, he was placed in an immigration detention center.
