The Indian team have been denied entry into the upcoming ITF World Junior Tennis Finals in Prostejov as India has been classified as ‘extreme risk’ nation in COVID times.


The Czech Republic Embassy here has refused to issue visas to the players. The All India Tennis Association (AITA) earlier this month named a three-member U-14 boys team comprising of Rethin Pranav RS, Kriish Ajay Tyagi and Tejas Ahuja for the prestigious tournament, scheduled to be held from August 2 to 7.
