Four-time Grand Slam winner Kim Clijsters said she remains determined to revive her career after years away from tennis, even as the coronavirus outbreak seeds uncertainty in the professional schedule.
Former world number one Clijsters and 2017 U.S. Open champion Sloane Stephens are among the headliners as World TeamTennis kicks off its three-week regular season on Sunday, at the Greenbrier resort in West Virginia.Clijsters' 2020 comeback after nearly eight years away from the sport was put on abrupt hold in March due to the COVID-19 outbreak, but she told reporters on Wednesday that the hiatus has not diminished her desire to be on the court.
"It doesn't mean because COVID happened that I'm not interested in playing more tennis," said the 37-year-old, who spent part of the coronavirus hiatus in New Jersey and part in her native Belgium. WTT said it has several precautions in place to minimize the risk of COVID-19 exposure, with all players and staff having self-quarantined for two weeks in the United States. Players must undergo testing and have daily temperature checks.
