-

Berlin: Up to 800 spectators per day will be allowed at a tennis exhibition in Berlin in mid-July, even after four players tested positive for the Coronaviru­s after playing in a similar event fronted by Novak Djokovic. Organisers of two tournament­s in Berlin said on Tuesday that the city health authoritie­s have approved a limited number of spectators. The maximum is set at 800 per day for a July 13-15 outdoor event on grass, and 200 per day for a hardcourt event in a hangar at the disused Tempelhof airport from July 1719. Organisers said it was the first sporting event in Germany to have spectators amid the Coronaviru­s pandemic. — AP
