The effects of the coronavirus pandemic on sport are coming to an end. Thus, after the football championships have resumed or the resumption dates have been set, the first good news from tennis also appears.

The 2020 edition of the Rome tournament, originally scheduled for May, was canceled, but the organizers reversed the decision. Competition officials in the Italian capital have announced that the WTA and ATP will determine the future of this season’s circuit in mid-June and, if the forums allow, the Roma Open will take place in September.

The tournament in Rome can be played in September

“ATP and WTA, the two leading tennis forums, will announce in mid-June when and how the two circuits will be resumed in 2020.

The probability at this moment is that the tournament in Rome will be played in September, but we have to wait, now, for the moment when they will have certainties “, it is shown in a communiqué issued by the competition organizers.

The tour in Rome is one of Simona Halep’s favorites. In recent years, the athlete in second place in the WTA ticked two semifinals and two appearances in the last act on clay in the Italian capital.
