MADRID - The likes of Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal could be set to face each other online after the cancelled Madrid Open tennis tournament announced it will run a virtual competition later this month.
The Spanish La Liga also organised a Fifa football tournament online last month, which raised more than a million euros and was won by Real Madrid's Marco Asensio, after every club picked a player to represent them. Each male and female winner will decide how much of the €150,000 prize money to donate to players who are"suffering economically". An additional €50,000 will go towards reducing the social impact of the Covid-19 crisis.
