Djoko’s Adria Tour cancels Montenegro leg

The Montenegro leg of the Novak Djokovic inspired Adria Tour charity tournament has been scrapped due to coronavirus concerns.

Djokovic said he was disappointed that the Adria Tour’s third leg in Montenegro, scheduled for June 27-28, had been called off.

“I am so sad for the Montenegro leg,” he told Sport Klub television.

“We tried everything, but the borders are still not open and we don’t have time to organise it all.”

Djokovic said organisers were looking at several alternative options and locations.

“We are running out of time so we will know where we stand either tomorrow or the day after,” he said.

The second leg of the tour will be held in Croatia’s coastal resort of Zadar on June 20-21 and the final one in Bosnia’s Banja Luka on July 3-4.
