Carline Garcia spoke to France TV Sport on how she sees the current situation as well as her financial situation during the Coronavirus crisis.

Currently, many players struggled with money as they have no income at the moment. Serena Williams' coach, Patrick Mouratoglou spoke about this problem, as a lot of players, mostly outside of the TOP 100 will need help. Former world number 4, Caroline Garcia says that her financial situation is good at the moment. Speaking to France TV Sport, she also shared her view on the current Tour suspension.
"We are left with four months of training and we cannot touch the racket. You have to accept the situation, I am lucky to be in good health like my family. I am also fortunate to have a little margin financially. The hard part is that nobody knows how it will happen, not knowing the future. Today, the resumpton is set for July 13, but it can go to September 13 suddenly. We are losing our rhythm, our calendar no longer looks like anything normal and the tournaments are cancelled one after the other," said Garcia.
"I hope they will be postponed until the end of the season and I hope that things will improve. Now, we don't know when the containment will be over, when the virus will stop spreading. We don't know when we can travel because our sport is international and we have to travel to go to tournaments. I can hardly imagine a cancellation of the season, it would be a shame… We are all ready to give up on our pre-season from November to December," Garcia said.
