Welcome to what the world of tennis could look like once restrictions caused by the coronavirus pandemic have been lifted.

On Friday, the International Tennis Federation, issued guidelines for local and national competitions.

The guidelines include arriving at a venue already dressed and leaving immediately after the conclusion of a match."Do not use the locker rooms or showers," say the ITF.

Masks are to be worn while off-court, players and officials should maintain two metres between each other. Handshakes are also off limits.

Each player will use their own set of balls and ball boys and girls will wear rubber gloves.

The players were also discouraged from signing autographs or taking selfies with fans.
