Daniil Medvedev said he is ‘willing’ to compete at the Australian Open but refuses to confirm whether or not he will travel to Melbourne in January.

Currently there is no assurances that unvaccinated stars will be able to compete at the Grand Slam, with Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews standing firm that those players refusing the vaccine will not be permitted.

The US Open champion is in agreement with his rival Novak Djokovic that he wants to keep his vaccination status and any other medical history private.

“I always said it, that I really like Novak’s answer about this. I want to keep my medical, no matter if it’s about vaccine, leg injury, head injury… I want to keep my medical private for a reason,” said the world number two ahead of the Paris Masters.
