US Open: Petra Kvitova says some players will not go under current coronavirus restrictions

Two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova says some players will not go to the US Open if current coronavirus restrictions continue.

The US Open is due to be played without fans in New York from 31 August.

The country is still reporting tens of thousands of new coronavirus cases daily and possible quarantine rules for players are unclear.

"I know a few players will definitely not go if the restrictions are like they are now," Kvitova told BBC 5 Live.

The 30-year-old Czech added: "I'm still thinking of what everything will look like, what the restrictions will be, how many people we can take and if they quarantine us.
