China News Service, December 28. According to the official Weibo news of the Australian Open, British star Andy Murray and Chinese flower Wang Xiyu will participate in the 2021 Australian Open with wild cards.
The teenager Wang Xiyu has won the Wimbledon Junior Women's Doubles Championship, the U.S. Open Junior Women's Singles Championship, and the world's number one in the Junior Women's Tennis Championships. In 2019, he entered the adult competition.
At the 2020 Australian Open, Wang Xiyu regretted that he stopped the qualifying round and failed to enter the main match.

In addition to Wang Xiyu, fans also saw Murray's name on the wild card list.
Murray has topped the Grand Slam men's singles throne three times and won the Olympic men's singles gold medal twice.
Prior to this, he had entered the Australian Open final 5 times, but failed to win the trophy.
Before the Australian Open in 2019, Murray, who was plagued by injuries, said at a press conference that he might retire after Wimbledon, but Murray never left.
In spite of his poor condition, he still participated in the competition intermittently in 2020, trying to regain his strong self on the field.
"We welcome Andy back to Melbourne. As a five-time finalist, he has become an integral part of many amazing games and stories at the Australian Open in recent years." Australian Open tournament director Craig Terry Said.
The 2021 Australian Open will be held in Melbourne from February 8 to 21.
Participating players will arrive in Australia one after another starting from January 15 and begin mandatory quarantine for 14 days.
