(CNN)World No. 1 Novak Djokovic states he would be opposed to a required vaccination versus the unique coronavirus if it was required by gamers for tennis to resume.

“But if it ends up being required, what will take place? I will need to decide. I have my own ideas about the matter and whether those ideas will alter at some time, I do not understand.

“Hypothetically, if the season was to resume in July, August or September, though not likely, I comprehend that a vaccine will end up being a requirement directly after we run out stringent quarantine and there is no vaccine yet.”

Last month, previous world No. 1 Amelie Mauresmo tweeted that “no vaccine = no tennis.” Neither the ATP or WTA trips have actually recommended that would be needed, while researchers think a Covid-19 vaccine is at least 12 months away.

CNN has actually connected to the ATP and WTA for remark.

Mauresmo stated that the existing tennis season– which has actually been suspended up until a minimum of July 13– might be at danger of being lost entirely.

Wimbledon has actually been canceled for the very first time because World War II and the French Open has actually been delayed up until September.

Questions stay over whether the United States Open, arranged to start in New York on August 24, will have the ability to proceed, with organizers stating they will continue to keep track of the scenario.

“I believe we’re going to need to draw the line under the 2020 tennis season,” Mauresmo tweeted. “International circuit = gamers of all citizenships plus the personnel, viewers and individuals from the 4 corners of the world who bring these occasions to life. No vaccine = no tennis.”
