The Rogers Cup women's tennis tournament will not be played this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Tennis Canada announced the event, scheduled for Aug. 7 to 16 in Montreal, is off the schedule.
Quebec's government announced Friday no sporting events could be held through Aug. 31, though it left the door slightly open for pro teams.
Tennis Canada says the women's event will return to Montreal in August 2021.
