Athletes across the globe from various different sports are doing what they can to help out in these dire times. Tennis players are prominent among those, including my personal hero Novak Djokovic. Just today, he announced that he will make a significant donation towards helping out the medical authorities in combating COVID-19.
The coronavirus has caused mayhem in most countries on the planet. It may not be the deadliest disease we have ever come across, but it spreads quicker than any wildfire. The fact that the virus spreads so quickly is causing a lot of chaos in society.
