 What's going on everybody welcome back to another breaking news story and it looks like the ATB Cup has been cancelled by multiple sources it's saying that it's being cancelled it looks like the quarantine period overlaps with the ATB Cup which means the tournament cannot be held also the fact that 24 nations playing in the one city because all tournaments are coming to Melbourne and staying in Melbourne that's going to be a little bit of a hassle and a little bit of a tough way to lead into the Australian Open especially because last year the ATB Cup went over 10 days and three different cities with you know 24 nations so it's a little bit too much too soon for that tournament to slot in before the Australian Open but there are other tournaments that are going to be played all going to Melbourne but let's go through the protocols now all the the policy that the Australian Open is looking at with players okay so as I said players are not allowed to enter the country or not allowed to enter Victoria slash Melbourne until January 1st we said the other day in a video that between the 5th and the 7th is probably where players are going to probably arrive you know spend new years at home and then arrive that first week in January 14 day quarantine period now this is a different thing from what we said last time they're actually allowed now the government of Victoria are actually allowing players to train while in quarantine so it's not a 14 day quarantine locked in a hotel room with nothing to do they can actually train so that's a good thing warm-up events are all going to be held in Melbourne so you've got Hobart which is a WTA event you've got Brisbane which is a WTA event and also the Adelaide tournament which is an ATP and WTA tournament all playing in Melbourne which is a good thing as well keep it in the bubble then you've got the Australian Open will be pushed back close to February now it's we said it was going to be in February it might only be a week later now because of the training allowance for the quarantine so that could be good if it's a little bit closer means it won't clash with tournaments throughout February but it looks like around February and the ATP Cup it will join Auckland 2021 as the other event that's been cancelled so Auckland cancelled at the start of October and now it looks like the ATP Cup is going to join that so let me know down below in the comments what do you reckon should the ATP Cup be held at another time should we hold it later in the year did you like the ATP Cup last year I personally I loved it I thought it was great I thought the fact that it's a team event with points it actually means something a little bit more than those team events that kind of just played for your country and played for pride you've got points for wins in the ATP Cup so I really liked it let me know down below if you liked it but it looks like ATP Cup 2021 it's been cancelled
