Many tennis players are worried about what the recent cases might mean for the ATP Tour. Some have even said that it might mean the end of the 2020 season. The ATP has not hinted that in any way but they will be expected to increase their safety measures.

Above all, every single person will be hoping that players infected will recover soon so that they will play the ATP Tour when it returns in August. Hopefully, that is exactly what happens.
