JAKARTA - Tennis referee Carlos Bernardes has been rushed to hospital after suffering a heart attack while undergoing quarantine in Melbourne ahead of next month's Australian Open, local media reported Thursday.
A photo of Bernardes being led into an ambulance was posted on social media on Wednesday. Launching Antara, neither Tennis Australia nor ATP has yet to respond to Reuters requests for comment.
The website TenisNews Brazil reports he is fine and is expected to be discharged from hospital on Saturday.
As an ATP Tour official since 1990, Bernardes has served in the men's finals of the 2006 and 2008 US Open as well as the 2011 Wimbledon men's title determination.
More than 70 players and their entourage were locked in their hotel room for 14 days and were unable to train for the Australian Open which will take place February 8-21 after passengers on the three charter planes returned positive tests for COVID-19.
Other players arriving on different flights are also subject to mandatory quarantine but they are allowed to leave their hotel rooms for five hours a day to train.
