Australian Open wildcard for 2-time champ Azarenka
Print Edition
TWO-TIME former champion Victoria Azarenka has been awarded a wildcard for the Australian Open.
Azarenka, who won the Australian Open in 2012 and 2013, has been involved in a custody dispute involving her son Leo, who was born last December 19. She hasn’t competed anywhere since Wimbledon, where she lost to Simona Halep in the fourth round on July 10. The dispute with her former partner started shortly after Wimbledon ended. Azarenka has played only six matches this year and is ranked 208th. Australian Open tournament director Craig Tiley said yesterday that every assistance would be provided to the former No. 1, adding “Vika’s current situation is obviously very difficult for her and we have reached out to offer any support we can.” The Australian Open starts in Melbourne on January 15.
