Isner has also said that he feels the Truist Atlanta Open can be played in a very safe manner and that they will still put on a good show for tennis fans. However, there are still a lot of people who are not comfortable with the event and the reason is probably what happened at the Adria Tour.
The Adria Tour also allowed fans and many players got infected with the coronavirus. People are worried that the same thing might happen in Atlanta and that is why they are against the event. Hopefully, it will not happen.
