Australia hosts the first Grand Slam of the year,awarded to the Asia-Pacific region, in January month,which the continent, being south of the equator, is the hottest month of the year.Therefore,either the event be postponed to late February, or if not possible the hosts(Australia)should be changed,since frankly speaking Australia though being a Pacific rim country,does not represent Asia. The event could be awarded to either Japan or China, the latter has 2 of the best & biggest tennis stadiums(in Shanghai & Beijing) in the world ,each fitted with retractable roof. Japan & Beijing in January get snow in January,thus Shanghai is the best venue,with temperatures varying between 15 & 5 degrees centigrade.
Aussies want the first Major tournament in a new year - you can not play this part of the year it is simply in human .there should be reschedule at least next year
