The BNP Paribas Open tennis tournament set to begin this week in Indian Wells, California, has been postponed after a coronavirus case was confirmed in the area and a public health emergency was declared, the first major sporting event in the U.S. affected by the virus. The announcement came Sunday night for the tennis tournament, the second-biggest in the U.S. behind the U.S. Open, commonly referred to as the “fifth slam.”
