Djokovic, who failed to win a grand slam title this season for the first time since 2017, has committed to arriving in Australia early to prepare for the year’s first major tournament beginning on January 12. “I’m excited to be kicking off my Australian swing at the Brisbane International and to compete again at Pat Rafter Arena,” said Djokovic on brisbaneinternational.com.au. “I am looking forward to experiencing the incredible support from the Australian fans and making this tournament one to remember.” Murray won the title in Brisbane in 2012 and 2013 but the PA news agency understands he is currently not expected to accompany Djokovic for the trip.
