The Weekend Briefing with Jelena Dokic

Jamila Rizvi talks to former tennis champion Jelena Dokic ahead of the Australian Open about her impressive career and the pressures of professional sport.

Jelena made headlines in 1999 at just 16 years old when she beat world number one Martina Hingis in the first round of Wimbledon. She then continued to climb the ranks to world number four, all while suffering horrific abuse at the hands of her father and coach, Damir Dokic.

She opens up about her traumatic personal life while competing on the world stage and gives insight into the pressures that the Australian Open competitors could be feeling, particular amidst a pandemic.
