Wimbledon could be postponed or even canceled after All England Club chiefs called an "emergency meeting" for next week to discuss whether to go ahead with this year's tournament amid the pandemic.
Wimbledon is set to start in London on June 29, but the outbreak has caused havoc with the sporting schedule and the grasscourt tennis Grand Slam could be the next major event to be delayed.
The French Open was the first of this year's three remaining Grand Slams to be postponed. Moving Wimbledon deeper into the tennis calendar might be tricky after the outcry over the unilateral French Open switch.
Pressure is growing on the All England Club to make a decision and organizers have ruled out playing the tournament behind closed doors.
Given it takes two months to get the site ready for the event, a decision needs to be made soon and All England Club chief executive Richard Lewis expects the call will be made at the emergency summit.
