"We are working hard to arrive at an acceptable calendar for this season, but objectively we are experiencing an extremely complex situation". Speaking is the president of the ATP, Andrea Gaudenzi, who looks with concern at the situation of the infections in the United States, where major tournaments such as the Masters 1000 in Cincinnati and the US Open are scheduled in just over a month. "For the Open we think we have a definitive answer by the end of July - said Gaudenzi to Sky Sport - but we know how complicated the scenario is in New York".
"Like ATP we have developed a very rigid protocol of 70 pages but we have exponentially greater difficulties than the other worlds - explained Gaudenzi -. We are international, with protagonists arriving from all over the world. These are linked to the possible quarantine that would block a player for 14 days entering or leaving a country. If we then decided to go ahead with the events we could not proceed even if he found a positive. We should isolate him and go on but how to do it? For this reason I repeat that we have a thousand difficulties. "
