Dokic, Luczak win Australian Open wild cards

Published Dec. 23, 2010 12:00 a.m. ET

Jelena Dokic and Peter Luczak have been awarded wild-card entries into next month's Australian Open, though both lost in the final in last week's wild-card playoffs.

Dokic was beaten by Olivia Rogowska in a three-set, rain-interrupted match but says she is confident of repeating her 2009 effort, when she reached the Open quarterfinals on a wild card.

She says the wild-card playoff had been good practice and she was happy with her performance.

Luczak, who lost his playoff final to Marinko Matosevic, says he now plans to play the Brisbane and Sydney International tournaments next month.
