Puig, Mertens and more take comfort from their pets

Published Mar 19, 2020

Players are at home taking comfort during these chaotic times by spending time with their pets. In a normal season, most pros don't travel with their dogs, especially if they're not travel-sized. And they don't spend many weeks at home, cuddling with their canines... until now.

There's Elise Mertens and her workout buddy.

Stay home, stay safe, and stay with your pets, seems to be the resounding message.
