The tennis world was rocked when four players including World No.1 Novak Djokovic were infected with the coronavirus in June. Among the four players was former World No.3 Grigor Dimitrov as well. All of them have recovered after being in self-isolation.
All this happened during the Adria Tour. It was a charity tour organized by Novak Djokovic. But the tour significantly lacked basic safety measures to prevent the spread of the virus. Necessities like masks and social distancing were discarded. Later Djokovic apologized for the event and said it all happened with good intentions.
