Spain-Poland BJK Cup match officially postponed to Friday due to storm DANA
The BJK Cup Finals were due to start this Wednesday. The match between Paula Badosa's Spain and Iga Swiatek's Poland was already threatened by the weather forecast. It's now official: the match has been postponed to Friday, for everyone's safety, due to storm DANA.
The city of Malaga, host of the BJK Cup, has been placed on red alert due to the risk of flooding. It was too dangerous to move spectators. The local population was advised not to leave their homes.
We'll have to wait another two days to enjoy this match, which promises to be indecisive and exciting.
