Grand Slam tennis returns but not as we know it.

The Australian Open players and officials had to quarantine for 2 weeks upon their arrival in the country, some of them were fortunate in that they were allowed out for a few hours each day however some players had to remain in their room full time for 2 weeks as their flights had cases of Covid-19.

The Australian Government allowed fans to attend at around 50% capacity but after 13 cases were detected in Melbourne, the tournament has banned fans for at least the next 5 days and the whole of Victoria is in lockdown.

Anyway the tennis continues and shortly the last remaining British singles player, Cameron Norrie, plays his third round match but it doesn't get much harder than 20 times Grand Slam champion Rafa Nadal.

For anyone who is interested the match will be live shortly on Eurosport 1.
