Ashleigh Barty, the world's number one female tennis player, has also joined the players who have expressed concern over the US Open event. She has expressed concern over the holding of the US Open tennis tournament despite uncertainty over the coronavirus epidemic and said she is against organizing the tournament. Many veterans have argued this way before also.

Let us tell you that all tennis competitions have come to a standstill due to the coronavirus epidemic. She knows that Wimbledon will not take place in 2020, but she is awaiting a clear decision on the US Open, which begins on August 31, as scheduled. Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal have also feared possible restrictions on players and other changes for the US Open.

If reports are to be believed, Simona Halep, the world's number two female player, is also suspected of playing at the US Open. Asked about this, Ashleigh Barty said, "I am worried too. I know the organizers are keen on organizing the tournament, but keeping everyone safe should be a priority."

Let us tell you that 21,22,000 cases have been reported so far in America, out of which more than one lakh 16 thousand people have died. Nearly 6 lakh people have recovered from it, but still this epidemic continues wreaking havoc in America. In such a situation, organizing any kind of event is not free from danger.
