A leaked email has revealed unvaccinated players will be allowed to participate in the Australian Open. 

Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) players were notified of the conditions that both fully vaccinated and unvaccinated players will face in the first Grand Slam of 2022 after communications with tournament director Craig Tiley.

Players who have not received the jab will be allowed to compete following a mandatory two-week hard hotel quarantine period.

They must also return regular negative COVID-19 tests during this time.
