Hamburg: World No.7 Alexander Zverev is still unsure about his participation at this season's US Open due to implications put forward by coronavirus pandemic in New York.
According to the German, wait and watch approach is the best policy currently and he said he will make a decision leading up to the tournament.
"I will see because the situation right now in the US is not that great, so I don't know what we will decide with my team," Zverev told a German media outlet.
"I want to play tournaments, but I think the US right now is a little bit of a funny place."
"I think just see how it develops over the next few weeks, if the cases go up, how the travelling will be and if it will be safe.
"I might not to go there if I don't feel safe, my team doesn't feel safe. I'm still quite young but everybody that is involved with me maybe is a little bit older and they're in more danger than I am," he added.
The US Open is currently scheduled to be held according to its original schedule from August 31 with the Cincinnati Open being held at the Flushing Meadows before that from August 22.
