https://www.fedcup.com/en/news/317110.aspx

The ITF has announced the postponement of both the Fed Cup by BNP Paribas
Finals 2020 and Fed Cup Play-offs in response to COVID-19 health concerns.

The ITF COVID-19 Advisory Group has been monitoring the global spread and
impact of COVID-19 since early February 2020, in continuous consultation withindependent medical and travel advisers as well as international and nationalauthorities.

After careful consideration and close discussion with the ITF Board, the
Local Organising Committee and in light of today’s announcement by the
Hungarian government regarding indoor events, it is with regret that the ITF
has announced the postponement of the Fed Cup Finals, originally scheduled totake place 14-19 April at the Laszlo Papp Sport Arena in Budapest.

Event organisers will contact all ticket holders in the next 48 hours to
advise them of their options.

The ITF is committed to delivering the Fed Cup Finals in 2020 and is in
consultation with key stakeholders, including the Hungarian Government, the
Hungarian Tennis Association (HTA) and the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA)
to find a suitable alternative date for the tournament.

The Fed Cup by BNP Paribas Finals is an Olympic Qualification event and the
ITF is working closely with the IOC to address any impact this may have on
athlete eligibility for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

In addition to the Fed Cup Finals, the Fed Cup Play-offs due to take place on17-18 April in eight locations around the world have also been postponed and
alternative dates in 2020 will be announced at a later date.

ITF president, David Haggerty said, "We are extremely disappointed to have
to make this decision, but we will not risk the safety and welfare of
players, captains, event staff or spectators. This decision has not been madelightly; the threat posed by the COVID-19 is a serious one and calls for us
to act responsibly as a federation and as human beings. This situation goes
beyond sport."

"New dates for the Finals and for the Play-offs will be announced in due
course and will primarily be guided by the length of time that tennis as a
whole is affected by COVID-19. We will continue to collaborate with our
colleagues across the sport to ensure that the impact on players,
tournaments, rights holders and fans is as minimal as possible."

"In the meantime, the ITF COVID-19 Advisory Group will continue to monitor
the situation closely and further decisions will be based on the facts,
official data and expert advice."

目前新的日期未定,但比賽確定將不會於原定日期 (4/14-19 & 4/17-18) 舉行。
有更多最新資訊會在官網上公布。
