Don’t miss… <\/strong> Tennis star suspended on anti-corruption charges after winning 10 titles in 2023[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cA lot of people don\u2019t really understand the Wimbledon and the French and the US Open, they own the facility in which they run their events. We lease it and the government, the Victorian Government, owns our facilities and we lease the facilities from them and we are fortunate that they invest in those facilities, but we don\u2019t own them.\u201d<\/p>\n Tiley then went on to reveal that he would support a move that saw Djokovic\u2019s career recognised, explaining: \u201cThe government, they do a great job on the pre-synched and it\u2019s a great pre-synched infrastructure the government\u2019s put together, it\u2019s magnificent. But yeah, it\u2019s a different construct to the other event.<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

But I would be certainly a supporter of recognizing Novak in some way, unbelievable achievements here in Australia.\u201d<\/p>\n It remains to be seen whether Djokovic can take his Grand Slam tally to 25 upon his return to Melbourne and whether such a historic moment will be the deciding factor for the Australian government to make a significant change, or if a shock defeat will put the recognition on pause until further down the line, potentially when he hangs up his racket for the final time.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/72\/590x\/secondary\/4984557.jpg?r=1695973720375\")
