Wimbledon will be cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic, according to German Tennis Federation (DTB) vice-president Dirk Hordorff. The grand slam is scheduled to begin in London on June 29 but may not be held for the first time since 1945, when there was no event due to World War II. A decision on the tournament is expected in the coming week and Hordorff said Wimbledon officials would cancel the event.
