The organizers of the ATP 500 tennis tournament in Washington will surprisingly announce that they have canceled the event that would have marked the return of the professional men`s tour. This was announced by the Tennis Break News website and added that the information came from three different sources.
The reason is that the European Union has decided to keep its borders closed to the United States until August 1, and only then will the condition for 14 days of self-isolation of European citizens upon arrival on American territory be lifted. Since the tournament in Washington was to start on the 14th, the directors must now decide whether to deal with the organization at all.
Washington still fears ATP cancellation
About a week ago, tournament adviced by soccer livescore director Mark Ein announced that if Washington was canceled, it would be better to announce it before August 6. We spent a lot of money and the worst case scenario would be if something happened the week before it started. Because then everyone involved would be in place, they had made their plans, Ein had said.
Tennis Break News states that the US Open and the Cincinnati Masters are not in the same danger because they are further on the calendar and will not suffer from the extension of the quarantine requirement for European citizens.
