Croatian tennis player Borna Coric, who attended Novak Djokovic’s Adria Tour exhibition tournament, has tested positive for COVID-19.
He joins Grigor Dimitrov, another competitor at the Croatian event, who on Sunday became the highest-profile tennis player to reveal he has been infected by the virus.
“Hi everyone, I wanted to inform you all that I tested positive for COVID-19,” Coric, 23, said on his official twitter account. “I’m feeling well and don’t have any symptoms.”
The final of the event, which would have featured world No.1 Djokovic and Russian Andrey Rublev, was cancelled as a result.
Bulgarian Dimitrov earlier revealed his positive.
“I want to reach out and let my fans and friends know that I tested positive back in Monaco for COVID-19,” the former world No.3 wrote on Instagram.
“I want to make sure anyone who has been in contact with me during these past days gets tested and takes the necessary precautions.
“I am so sorry for any harm I might have caused. I am back home now and recovering. Thanks for your support and please stay safe and healthy.”
The second leg of the Adria Tour, a Balkan charity event organised by Djokovic while international tennis remains suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic, was taking place in Zadar, Croatia.
