USATSI

The 140th US Open is taking place from Aug. 31-Sept. 13 at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York. This year’s US Open will be unlike any other, with new health and safety protocols in place because of the coronavirus pandemic. 

Fans is probably not attending the tournament for safety reasons, as COVID-19 cases continue to pose a problem for the nation. One of the crucial world’s top players have determined to opt-out, citing safety concerns for themselves in addition to others amid the pandemic.
