A total 47 players from two chartered flights who flew the Australian Open on Friday are required to stay in their hotel rooms for 14 days — unable to train for the competition — because of positive COVID-19 tests on their flights.
The group reportedly includes two-time Australian Open champion Victoria Azarenka and former U.S. Open winner Sloane Stephens. They will be out of quarantine on Jan. 29 at the earliest. The tournament, pushed back from its standard start, will begin on Feb. 8 with the draw starting Feb. 4.
