This year, the AO will be joining the vast and growing list of other organisations that are shunning or ignoring the day. Instead, January 26 will just be a regular day in the fixture of the tournament.
“We are mindful there are differing views, and at the Australian Open, we are inclusive and respectful of all,” said Tennis Australia about the decision at the time.“We acknowledge the historical significance and deep spiritual connection our First Peoples have to this land and recognise this with a Welcome to Country on stadium screens prior to both the day and night session daily.”
