Mülheim / Ruhr (dpa) – Because of the lockdown imposed in the Gütersloh district due to the corona outbreak at the meat processor Tönnies, one of the intermediate and bonus rounds of the German Tennis Federation has been moved from Versmold to Mülheim an der Ruhr.

“There was no alternative to the cancellation in Versmold. The health of the players and all those involved is the top priority,” said DTB sports director Klaus Eberhard. The games in Mülheim should start on Wednesday. At the same time, games will take place in Großhesselohe, Oberhaching and Neuss this week.

Versmold belongs to the Gütersloh district, for which North Rhine-Westphalia Prime Minister Armin Laschet (CDU) has again imposed strict corona restrictions.
