Rafael Nadal spoke recently about the efforts being utilised by the ATP in order to help players through Coronavirus.

Nadal said that from his perspective being a player who isn't as affected but has a vested interest through being on the Players Council that he has a duty of sorts to help.

"I am part of the ATP Players Council and I think we have a responsibility to try to help the sport prevail in the best possible way. Different measures have been taken, and one of them it is to create a fund for the Top 100 players in the world who can provide an amount of money to help the other players, who are experiencing difficult situations, and many ATP employees as well.

This is a fund to help the world of tennis in general, not just players. In difficult times you are forced to think about the one who is worse than you."
