Australian Open: Is it worth the risk?

Today on the Briefing we discuss the crisis engulfing the Australia Open.

One of the main reasons being put forward for taking the risk of going ahead with this tournament is a threat that we’d lose the Australian Open if we didn’t. How real was that risk? Because Wimbledon was cancelled last year and its future’s not in doubt?

A lot of Australians don’t have sympathy for the players, especially their complaints and demands, but can you tell us more about where they’re at. What has the last year been like for them? How much have they played and how much income have they lost?

In today's headlines:

  • The latest on the Australian Open and Victoria's plans to make sure the event goes ahead

  • Japan determined to make sure the Tokyo Olympics goes ahead

  • The final days of Donald J Trump's presidency

  • India win one of the most remarkable cricket tests in history.
