Mikael & Elias Ymer to meet in Tennis Against Corona in Stockholm

Mikael and Elias Ymer will face each other in the Tennis Against Corona, an event created by Stockholm Open that should help the Coronavirus Relief.

21 and 24-years-old Ymer brothers are currently the best two Swedish tennis players in the ATP Ranking. Now, they will meet in an exhibition match at the Royal Swedish Tennis Hall. The event is called Tennis Against Corona and it's organized by Stockholm Open.

“The ongoing pandemic is the worst health crisis of our time, a time to come together and help where you can,” said Thomas Enqvist, Stockholm Open Tournament Director. “Tennis Against Corona is our way of contributing through help organizations and, at the same time, bringing great tennis to the world.”

“COVID-19 is a global threat putting the lives of thousands of already vulnerable people in even greater danger. It requires a global response and global solidarity. We thank Elias and Mikael Ymer and the Stockholm Open for this great initiative. We are all in this together and only together we can make a difference,” said Sofia Calltorp, International Director of Swedish Red Cross.
