Driving the news: Djokovic will not be able to defend his Australian Open title when the tournament starts in Melbourne. The World No. 1 is looking to break a three-way tie with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal for most Grand Slam men's singles titles.
An Australian appeals court will hear arguments in Novak Djokovic's visa cancellation case on Sunday.
