'We may not be back for the rest of the year': British Tennis player Ken Skupski says the sport has to be realistic about its return amid the coronavirus crisis

For Ken Skupski the Coronavirus has meant the most abrupt shift in lifestyle, from global traveller to what he cheerfully describes as 'almost a house husband'.

The British Davis Cup player and current world number 51 in doubles is confined to his home in Liverpool, now on paternal duties while his wife, Hayley, continues her job with Merseyside Police.

'We worked out that at the start of the year I'd spent more than seven weeks away, but life has suddenly become very different,' says Skupski, who reached the quarter finals of the Australian Open in January.
