“The optics are not great. It looked like it was an amazing event and it was going to be successful. But obviously, you hate to see something like that happen. At this point, it is a tough situation for sure and I think it affects the upcoming events. These are the first high-profile tennis players to get infected and it will have an impact going forward.
