The ticket sales of the ATP World Tour 500 event in Basel will start on April 2. Furthermore, the tournament organizers will refund the tickets if the event doesn’t go as per schedule.
The coronavirus pandemic has already led to the cancellation of various tennis events over the past few weeks. We hope no further tournaments are canceled and the virus subsides soon. As a result, the tennis tour could resume on the scheduled date of June 7. However, the remaining tournaments of the year will not take place if the coronavirus crisis isn’t solved.
