Players have to be on their game immediately at the start of the season after a six-week layoff that just might not be enough in this age of highly athletic tennis. I'm all for extending their offseason another six weeks and giving them a true break to rest their minds and heal their bodies. If the ATP season starts then in late February, the Australian Open could either be inserted at the beginning of the schedule or after a few ATP Masters 1000 tournaments.
If you allow the players to truly rest and then let them get back on their games with a couple of high-level tournaments prior to the Australian Open, I think you vastly improve the quality of that Grand Slam. I'm a tennis fan, but it's hard for me to get excited about tennis when it's still winter in most of the tennis-playing world. I know it's summer in Australia, but the average high temperature for Melbourne in January is 78 degrees versus 75 degrees in March. That doesn't sound like much, but there is definitely a chance for more comfortable playing weather if the Open is moved back six weeks or more.
There's roughly three weeks between the end of the French Open in early June and the start of Wimbledon later in the month. The last Grand Slam of the year, the U.S. Open, starts roughly eight weeks later. By inserting the Australian Open roughly eight weeks from the French Open, you can achieve more of a symmetry to the tennis season.
Obviously, there are going to be future changes made to the ATP schedule, and I would be highly surprised if the Australian Open is not moved. I think it ultimately benefits the players a great deal and improves the flow of the tennis season as a whole.
