Michail Pervolarakis

Australian Open organizers say the player from Greece's ATP Cup team who tested positive for Covid-19 on arrival in South Africa had returned a negative result the day he left Melbourne.

Michail Pervolarakis played in the Greek team with Stefanos Tsitsipas last week in one of the six tuneup tournaments for the Australian Open.

Greece ended its presence in the ATP Cup in Melbourne with a 2-1 win over Spain on Friday, but it was the Spanish who went through to the semifinals of the tournament as they have beaten the Australians who downed the Greeks on Wednesday.
