The French Open has unveiled plans to allow fans to attend the Grand Slam this year with strict safety measures taking place as they hope to go ahead with a maximum of 60% of its full capacity.

This in comparison to the US Open which is taking place behind closed doors; a maximum of four people will be able to sit together with a seat apart; while on other courts, every other seat will be vacant.

“We went for the responsible option,” FTT president Bernard Giudicelli told reporters.
“Should the situation evolve in the right direction, new tickets would be available in September,” he added.

“If the situation requires more stringent hygiene standards that force us to reduce the number of spectators on site, the tournament organisers will refund any supplementary tickets sold,” the FFT explained.
