Millman on suspension of ATP Tour due to Coronavirus: "I just can’t see us playing tennis for a long time"

Millman doesn't believe that there will be tennis for quite some time with the situation changing daily and for the Australian admits for him personally it might be tough financially.

“We’re going to have to be pretty unified in terms of our recovery process before the tour can resume,” Millman said to The Age.

“Maybe the tournament location has got the COVID-19 situation under wraps and then manage to contain it, but if someone’s flying in from South America, say, and their country hasn’t got a hold of it, then the tournament can’t (go ahead).

“You can’t have the tournament going when only certain players can get there. I think that’s
where the problems lie.”

“I just can’t see us playing tennis for a long time and now it’s a matter of trying to stay (the) fight, trying to scrape by a little bit while not much is coming in,” he said.

“You’re used to a bit of money coming in and obviously that’s not the case anymore. Yeah, it’s tough. It’s just not easy. You try and make do.

“But I don’t want to be a sob story, that’s for sure, because I know Australians are doing it a lot tougher than me.”
