"Melbourne will always have a special place in my heart," emphasized the Vaud native in a statement released by the Australian Open. "I won my first Grand Slam title in this city in 2014. The atmosphere has always been special. I thank the organizers for their gesture."
This means that two Swiss players will be represented in the main draw of the men's singles at the Australian Open (January 12 to 26). Dominic Stricker (ATP 301), who has a protected ranking, is also taking part.
