A positive test for coronavirus has been found in the New York tennis bubble where the US Open is set to take place later this month, the United States Tennis Association (USTA) announced on Tuesday. USTA medical officer Bernard Camins revealed that the person who has contracted the virus “is not a player” and is asymptomatic. The finding comes after 1,400 tests for the disease were conducted since August 13 in the bubble at the Billie Jean King center in New York City, where the Cincinnati ATP event and the US Open are to be staged. Dr. Camins said the male individual initially tested negative but then a second test two days later came up positive. He added that the person’s hotel roommate has also been placed under quarantine.
