ITF announces postponement of all ITF events until 8 June 2020
Today the ITF will announce the decision to further postpone all ITF-owned and sanctioned events until Monday 8 June. This will apply across the men’s and women’s ITF World Tennis Tour, the ITF World Tennis Tour Juniors, the ITF Beach Tennis World Tour, the UNIQLO Wheelchair Tennis Tour, and the ITF Seniors Tour. You are kindly requested to keep this information confidential until the announcement is issued publicly later today.
These are challenging and uncertain times, but the health and safety of players, player support teams, officials, event staff and the local community must be the priority. We will of course monitor the situation in conjunction with independent medical and travel advisers, who will in turn consider Government and public health authorities advice and instruction. We understand and share your disappointment but we hope you will understand our position. We will look to resume activity as soon as we are advised that it is safe to do so, but it is unfortunately not possible to predict the length of time that international tennis will be affected by COVID-19.
We will do our best to keep you informed in the coming weeks.
Kind regards
ITF World Tennis Tour
