The Australian Open has been given the green light to proceed after a COVID-19 scare at one of the tournament's quarantine hotels.

All 507 players, officials and support staff have returned negative COVID-19 results after undergoing further testing following the hotel quarantine worker case.

The results paved the way for the Australian Open to go ahead as planned from Monday.

The Victorian government has also clarified tennis fans will be required to wear a mask when the roof is closed on the main arenas during the Australian Open.
