Britain's star player Andy Murray tested positive for covid-19. After testing positive for the virus, his participation in next month's Australian Open is in doubt.

Murray is in self-isolation and in good health. He was awarded a wildcard to play in the main draw of the year's first Grand Slam in Melbourne and still hopes to compete at the tournament. However, that could prove difficult with players and officials required to arrive in Australia during a 36-hour window from Thursday and needing to serve mandatory isolation of 14 days. 

Murray is currently ranked 123rd in the world. American Tennys Sandgren got special permission to board a chartered flight from Los Angeles bound for the Australian Open on Wednesday despite testing positive for corona earlier in the week having previously tested positive for the virus in late November.
