World no. 1 draws fellow Miomir Kecmanovic for his opening round match.
Novak Djokovic was included in the Australian Open official draw on Thursday, although it is still uncertain whether the government will cancel his visa for a second time.
World no. 1 was drawn with fellow Miomir Kecmanovic, who is ranked 78th, for his first-round match.
On Jan. 4, Djokovic said he had been granted a medical exemption from being vaccinated for COVID-19, but after his arrival, the Australian Border Force canceled his visa.
After he was sent to an immigration detention hotel in Melbourne, a federal court ordered his release.
Australia mandates all players to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 to compete in this year's first major tennis tournament.
Djokovic has refused to say whether he is vaccinated for the coronavirus. -
