German weather has thrown a wrench into the schedule of the prestigious WTA 500 tennis tournament currently taking place in Berlin.
Details: Tournament organizers were forced to officially announce a temporary suspension of all ongoing and scheduled matches due to a torrential downpour, which rendered play on the outdoor courts unsafe for the athletes.
According to preliminary forecasts, the forced break in the German capital is expected to last at least another hour. However, the exact time for the resumption of full match play on the courts will depend entirely on the movement of the rain front over the city.
This frustrating waiting period has affected several intriguing showdowns that were set to thrill the German crowd during the upcoming session. Fans in the stands and viewers at home are now eagerly awaiting the start of three postponed matches: Brockmann vs Parks, Siniakova vs Yuan, and Marcinko vs Ito.
The players themselves were forced to urgently leave the courts and move to the comfort of the indoor facilities.
Reminder: Massive payouts announced for the MMA event at the White House.
