Novak Djokovic is confident he can still win Grand Slams, starting at the Australian Open, with the Serbian kickstarting his bid for an unprecedented 11th title and record 25th major crown in Brisbane this week.

The 2025 season gets under way today with the mixed-teams United Cup in Perth and Sydney, headlined by world No 2 Iga Swiatek in her first tournament since revelations that she served a one-month doping suspension.
