Great thread, but you should format it a bit and/or put some tables in and divide between countries or sports to make it more clear. I have lost of track of what is cancelled until now and for how long etc. In the end I would think that everything gets cancelled until further notice, but even then, we would at least have a table, where we could put the dates in when certain leagues/sports are expected to resume again - if ever ;)

There is more:

ATP tour was recently suspended for six weeks. (Source: https://www.foxsports.com.my/tennis/atp-tour/152101/breaking-news-atp-tour-suspended-for-six-weeks-due-to-coronavirus/)

I think there are also reports of Segunda Division (Spain) being suspended along with LaLiga. BTW I am glad to see atleast Spain getting serious with dealing with Coronavirus and take precautionary measures.

There are so many events that has been cancelled because of this virus,
But it was for the best because it is for the safety of everyone they should prioritize the health of everyone since those event could always continue once the virus is cured,
But the life of those who would be lost because of the virus could never come back.

Basically, almost every major competition are getting stopped.
Football leagues in Switzerland, Lithuania are stopped for few weeks, in Bulgaria, Poland, Greece, Romania and many other countries will be played behind closed doors
All FIBA basketball tournaments are stopped. German, Spain and ABA basketball leagues stopped. Ukraine and Poland championship ended and winners are announced
All ATP tennis tournaments are stopped.
IIHF ice hockey World championships postoponed
Moto GP first two races postponed, Formula E Rome E-prix cancelled, Mcclaren withdraws from F1 Australia GP.
And many more to go..
It's probably biggest crisis since WW2...

Yep the thread definitely needs a better format ! I was a bit rushed this afternoon and limited time for the rest of the day . I’ll see if I can have a proper go at it tomorrow when I’ve got a lot more time .

I think this list is pretty good as it's getting updated live and the proofs of the info are added there: https://www.cbssports.com/general/news/coronavirus-live-updates-big-ten-sec-big-12-and-more-cancel-conference-tournaments/live/. And there's also a BBC article which can be useful: https://www.bbc.com/sport/51605235. I think we'll have to wait for a few days to see the real impact, as many countries might not have decided what they're going to do or some sporting events have not updated their info yet in accordance with the new regulations... I think that soon all of the big sports events will be postponed until April at least, so the impact will be big.

Just want to share some on our locals:

PH's biggest and top professional basketball league also cancel games for the whole conference and all its activities indefinitely - link (https://sports.inquirer.net/389127/pba-suspends-all-activities-no-timetable-on-resumption)

To be honest this thread may be a dead duck anyway. I’m watching a bit of the sports news now and I reckon within 24-48 hrs every sporting event is gonna be cancelled or at the very least postponed !

Esports events should, IMO, be appended on this thread as well. Lots of money/bets would have went to those events had it not been for the spread of the virus in Europe and fear of getting it over to North America.

ESL One Los Angeles for DOTA 2 is cancelled.
Several League of Legends events, too, were postponed indefinitely.
Apex legends tournaments were also cancelled, and the list goes on..

i notice that only basketball and soccer are mainly affected with the virus problem but why not other sports like swimming , tennin ,volleyball or others  ? maybe because nba and soccer are the most popular in which many people are going to attend it than on other sports  . 

this is okay that they cancell the event rather than risking thier selves and become injured or worster thing can happen to them , not only to the players but also the fans and audience also  .

Basically, almost every major competition are getting stopped.

Not good enough, thought by now all major football tournament will be stopped since it's more of a contact sport filled with audience in their thousands creating a more favourable environment for the Corona virus to be distributed to as much individuals as possible but I'm not impressed. Seems like the governing body of this leagues are more interested in the profit to be made then the health of the fans, players and employees of the stadium this matches are been played in.

I know "the show must go on" but when human health are at risk, the number one priority of any body overseeing any gathering or event should be to keep we (humans) safe from harm. Irrespective of how negative such decision will have to their business our life's is more important.

All sports are affected. But obviously, football, basketball, tennis, motorsport get most attention because it's most popular sports. But there is lot of voleyball, handball, snooker, swimming, winter sports, MMA and other fight sports competitions is getting stopped, they just get less attention from media

I thought the Olympics 2020 will be canceled due to the pandemic virus but the event pushes through. They are now in the first phase of the relay. Still on ceremony part and no games yet but are they really going to push this or they will just finish the traditional ceremony but no games will be played after that until the virus infection calms down a bit and became controllable.

The number of audiences is just the same. It's just that basketball and soccer are all-year sports so they are the ones always at the sports media news.

PBA Board of Governors cancel games as corona virus continues to spread (https://www.pba.ph/news/pba-board-of-governors-cancel-games-as-corona-virus-continues-to-spread)-
Upcoming games of Philippines Basketball Association (PBA) are also cancelled due to this corona virus.
And especially most of the venue of the games of PBA are located in the capital of Philippines which most of confirmed cases of corona virus are came there, the decision of the association management is good for everybody.
PBA is the biggest basketball league in the Philippines and just started the conference by last week.

I think there is lot of time till Olympics (3-4 months is a lot) . It is going to happen in last week of July. Maybe situation gets better by then. I think proper decision will be made 1 month before the schedule. However their organizing committee president have hinted that delay could happen but I think they are waiting to see how it goes on for now.

Sadly, the impact of the virus to sports events does not only refer to cancelled or postponed games. So far, we have already athletes who are themselves infected with COVID-19. Earlier, we had Utah Jazz's player Rudy Gobert. It was immediately followed by a teammate in Donovan Mitchell who also tested positive of the infection.

Other than these NBA players, we also have COVID-19 victims in football. Daniele Rugani of Juventus tested positive of the virus. Arsenal has also reported that their manager Mikel Arteta is also infected with the same.

Even the 2020 UAE Tour is affected by this pandemic. The cycling race event has already started and was halfway when it was suddenly cancelled when two participants from Italy was found to be positive of COVID-19.

This is a time for sports to have a hiatus.

Upcoming UFC fights are affected. Though it was not postponed but based on what I've understand the fights will continue however there will be no spectators on the given setting at all. All we can do is to watch it via computer or mobile devices. For more info check this out: https://www.facebook.com/176272595900226/posts/1247955375398604/?app=fbl

I heard about from The Guardian news about The Juventus defender Daniele Rugani has tested positive for Coronavirus, the Serie A club said on Wednesday.

Here are the links:

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2020/mar/11/juventus-defender-daniele-rugani-tests-positive-for-coronavirus

Besides that, here is another news from Guardian.ng:

"A second division footballer was on Wednesday the first player to test positive for coronavirus in Germany as RB Leipzig became the last Bundesliga side to announce that they would hold their weekend match behind closed doors."

Source Links: https://guardian.ng/sport/german-footballer-contracts-coronavirus/

I found some interesting article about the impact of Coronavirus on sporting:

https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2880569-timeline-of-coronavirus-impact-on-sports
https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nba/2020/03/12/coronavirus-impact-ncaa-nfl-nba-nhl-baseball-what-we-know/5030927002/
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/12/the-sports-world-grinds-to-a-halt-amid-the-coronavirus-outbreak.html

You can find it more on Google.

Many things have impacted the virus. Many countries canceled many events in their country, including sports, because they want to search for people who got an impact from the Coronavirus. We hope that it does not take a long time to see the cure for this virus.

However the google result shows that Barcelona vs Napoli and Chelsea vs Bayern might happen but I find it hard to believe especially when today one of the Chelsea players was found positive with the virus and training was cancelled. I have doubts in Barcelona vs Napoli too btw.

this is the first time that almost all of the basketball event was cancelled ,there are many cases of virus comes from the past but only Corona Virus make all this happen.

the Media is bringing big part on this but it is Good so the Governments are now focusing in the safeties of all the people around the world.

even the biggest countries are now getting worried about this.

Hope this will be cured soon so we can enjoy Sports betting again.

This event postponing is the only way to go because the disease has been declared pandemic, plus this games could wait, they do not want to risk their personnel, players and attending audiences contracting and spreading the virus just for entertainment and sports. Safety is the number one priority right now. I think a lot of people could agree on the fact that this contagion is threatening. On the brighter side, this can help in making a rest and recuperation for the players because they are going to need that when this problem is over for millions of hyped fans who is excited for this events

There are so many events that has been cancelled because of this virus,
But it was for the best because it is for the safety of everyone they should prioritize the health of everyone since those event could always continue once the virus is cured,
But the life of those who would be lost because of the virus could never come back.

Exactly. People shouldn't worry about the canceling, it's definitely for everyone's good. If this affect your favorite players, it will probably affect the club chance of competiting well. Hopefully the players/clubs and their huge fans don't get involved in other things that encourage the spread of the virus.

Lest I forget:
Buy sufficient foods, eat healthy, drink lots safe drinking water, avoid "bad things", change your bad ways(repent). If you believe in a true CREATOR, pray, humble yourself, and ask him for forgiveness, & to guide you to know the truth/the way, I strongly believe HE will guide you if you trust HIM. Don't allow fear ruin your life, though be cautious about harmful things.... You will be kept safe no matter how dangerous your surroundings is

In my opinion, all sports events around the world need to be halted for a period of time regardless of the losses that they could incur since health is 1st priority always. This virus has the potential to turn into the deadly Influenza virus of 1918 if we aren't careful.

IPL(India Premier League) 2020 is a million dollar league which is conducted annually and I am hoping that they suspend it this time around(Closed doors rumors). Major conferences like GDC 2020 and E3 2020 have been shuttered too.

Most of the gamblers are betting in the NBA because people really like watching and playing basketball. There are many fan of basketball that's why when they know that NBA will suspend all of its game, people are unhappy because of that. Covid-19 can be easily transmitted transmitted because the virus stay at any places and it is microscopic so it is not easy to notice. Gamblers can only bet in a game like dice, roulette, and etc., as of now because we need to understand the situation now. There are many option in gambling, we should not only rely on the sports betting if we really like gambling. Health is important than money, and what is the sense of money if your life is at risk. I believe that health first before anything else. Keep safe everyone.

Thanks for all the inputs guys .
I started making a little list and table this morning and the list has got rather large !!
To be perfectly honest - EVERY sporting event is going to be affected .
I think it’s GAME OVER for every sport for at least a couple of weeks .

Few more anyway  :)
Cricket - England’s tour of Sri Lanka postponed
Football - all Champions League and Europa matches postponed
Football - ligule 1 and 2 - suspended

XFL's season also got suspended they're going to continue their operations next year.

https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2880607-xfl-suspends-2020-inaugural-season-amid-coronavirus-concerns

In hockey the NHL was also stopped after the NBA announced their suspension and same thing with the NCAA's March Madness.

https://www.theverge.com/2020/3/12/21177092/nhl-season-suspended-coronavirus-nba-pandemic-player-positive-test


Looks like someone already beat me to it, most of the suspensions can be found on the bleacher report page posted above by maydna.

Wow even The Players Championship was also cancelled even though golf doesn't require that much contact.

Maybe the other way round would do better - just list all the sports/leagues, that are still running ;D From the sports I follow (a bit), only Snooker is still running. In cycling, Paris-Nice is still going, but most of the upcoming races have been cancelled as well. This will be some boring upcoming weeks, but on a positive note, once everything starts to resume again, we will have a very busy schedule. Every day will be full of sports to watch and bet on.

 Premier league did cancelled as well. I thought UK was handling it very well, that sounded a little premature to suspend right away but considering the exponential growth of the number of infected, it does sound like a good decision. I mean would you prefer to wait too late to suspend and have players with corona on the pitch running for 90 minutes or would you prefer everyone to be healthy and stay that way instead.

 What really will be interesting is the amount of money in sports. As we all know teams pay these players according to how much they make as well. Now that teams in almost all sports will play a lot less but contracts are already out there, I am pretty sure it will be reflected some other way. NBA teams even will pay for not played games for hourly workers let alone others, so people who are hourly will get paid even when they are not working, that has to come out of somewhere. I suspect there will be a lower cap space for next year as well.

I'm hoping that this Corona virus will end sooner than we expected I don't want to reach the month of July where one of the biggest sporting events is going to happen and that is the Fury Wilder match, people are anticipating  this third match and the Corona Virus if it will not be stopped can make an impact, although they can think of proceeding without a live audience I don't know if this is possible.
I doubt it, every minute, ncov cases are increasing but I'm also hoping that it won't reach June or July.

People are also excited about the upcoming championships on different eSports games like The International 2020 of DOTA 2 and Worlds 2020 of League of Legends. My year is not complete if these tournaments will be canceled due to Covid.

Worlds 2020 is one of my fave tournaments where I always bet since I know which is the team that plays stronger.

The trouble is not actually being able to gamble or not, even a person with corona could just open a website and gamble anywhere they want. The trouble is NBA, NHL, F1 and many others are all getting cancelled.

The most recent news was march madness getting closed for example, NCAA march madness is one of the leading gambling options out there during march, it allows people to gamble on a elimination based games and sometimes they play on outrights as well, with that being gone I think one of the most highly gambled sports game out there is gone. However poker, dice, plinko and stuff like that all still out there and can be played, so I doubt it is a total loss for online casinos, they can still offer computer games that could help people gamble whenever they want to.

Just few weeks ago we didn't even thought that such scenario is possible, but now most of sports leagues and competitions around the world is stopped and future of it is very questionable.
From what I see, competition in Europe is still going on in Turkey, Russia, Serbia, Belarus, Ukraine, some Asian and South American countries, most of Africa and Australia. It's probably first time since WW2 when most of competition were forced to stop. It will definitely cost lot of money.
What really will be interesting is the amount of money in sports. As we all know teams pay these players according to how much they make as well. Now that teams in almost all sports will play a lot less but contracts are already out there, I am pretty sure it will be reflected some other way. NBA teams even will pay for not played games for hourly workers let alone others, so people who are hourly will get paid even when they are not working, that has to come out of somewhere. I suspect there will be a lower cap space for next year as well.
There will be huge impact in terms of money. In my country, basketball league made very strange decision - they ended championship in the middle of season and announced champions. It means that league and clubs will get less money from sponsors, less revenue from TV rights. It's force majeure situation and it means that clubs will not pay money to players for remaining months of season...

I strongly agree that this corona virus has caused many important events in the world of sports to be postponed, especially in sports
important football matches must be postponed. Even Cristiano Ronaldo decided to stay in Portugal for a while. Because his teammate
daniele rugani is positively affected by the corona virus. Hopefully this corona virus problem can be found soon a vaccine that really
works to cure the virus in a short time.

Containment will not fix the problem and many sporting events will be cancel the biggest I believe is the NBA season we will not have an NBA championship this year, if there is still no cure for this epidemic we will see no big sporting events anymore unless a cure comes out of this or we become immune of it.

Lol really. Didn't other team raised questions regarding this decision. I wonder what basketball league that is.

I think they will be forced to take this decision back by other teams and fans very soon. Best course of action is to suspend  the league for some time and see how the situation goes on and take decision afterwards if it has taken long and we haven't find any solution for the virus.

The effects of the global spread of the C virus have haunted everyone from gambling, sports leagues to MotoGP, no exception.

Effect C: Qatar MotoGP opener cancelled over coronavirus threat (https://www.aa.com.tr/en/sports/qatar-motogp-opener-cancelled-over-coronavirus-threat/1751199)

In Japan also experienced the same thing in the last decade Japan appeared afraid in the Olympics this year will experience a cancellation and also the Swiss Super League will delay after the government conducts a public event.

And as I see again Liverpool also experienced a bad thing that would cancel the match schedule, due to the effects of the C virus phenomenon.

Effect C: Coronavirus outbreak: Would Liverpool be denied the Premier League if title race is cancelled? (https://www.goal.com/en/news/coronavirus-outbreak-would-liverpool-be-denied-the-premier/1hpkac8jnaojo16dlsfx22ctmp)

It's the government's initiative going into a big crowd to prevent from getting infected on the virus.
If popular athletes, and actor was infected, there's a big possibility that we are going to be infected as well as we continue to go out and go in a big crowd.

The decision is bad for the economy but the government should always ensure safety first or good health of the people over profit as eventually when more and more are infected, people will still not gonna go in big events, so the government here are just thinking in advance.

Of course that governments are not prepared. Who could expected something like this and that corona virus will spread so fast throughout the world.
However, catastrophe stil can be prevented and exactly from reason of prevention large sport events are cancelled. And not only sport events but all those who gather a large number of people.
That is bad for sport lovers and gambling lovers but health comes first and this situation will not last forever.

Esports are also affected by this pandemic and I think it will be really boring with the tournaments being done online. There is also a chance that some of the players might take advantage of it.

Big sports events right now are suspending their games because of COVID-19 and because of this shitty virus, some of the gamblers are forced to stop gambling right now if they are gambling on sports events and maybe they will be gambling on other games if they don't choose to stop.

There are more disastrous virus in the past than this virus. The problem is the media is hyping it making the people panic at its highest. The virus is controllable and in South Korea, the number of recovering right now is greater than the number of affected persons one proof that it is controllable already with proper medical kits.

We can't be selfish at this moment, we need to sympathize on the majority and that is the safety of all the people.

The government are responsible if they are making a timely measure of this pandemic and suspending games is not only the decision of the management but maybe they are also called by the government. Let's trust that this would not last longer so we can resume enjoying what we like best especially gambling on sports, this time, let's focus ourselves on other activities so we can still be productive.

Upcoming UFC fights are affected. Though it was not postponed but based on what I've understand the fights will continue however there will be no spectators on the given setting at all. All we can do is to watch it via computer or mobile devices. For more info check this out: https://www.facebook.com/176272595900226/posts/1247955375398604/?app=fbl

I'm a little bit worried on Khabib vs Ferguson fight. It seems that they are really meant to fight each other lol ;D. The universe is not allowing them to do so.
Added to that most of the e-sports events have been delayed and cancelled as I was checking around and LPL, LEC, etc are delayed and even the matches that are being played are actually done under immense security, masks and other precautions. I believe that while sports and other other events are important and it is financial as well as interest loss for event organizers but they must understand how dangerous and quickly this virus spreads and if not enough measures are taken there will be chaos in no time.

I was even gutted to see the price swings BTC is going through right now because not just gambling, gaming, entertainment but even financial markets are shattered because of the coronavirus.

Damn. With all majority sporting events getting postponed, Saturdays will become more boring than usually. It's like all weekends are now international breaks. Today, there was no matches to keep me engaged. That said, I hope that the impact of the Coronavirus pandemic is limited and stopped – if possible, majority of infected persons recover.  From the look of things, it looks like it'll get more critical than it is currently. Let's hope things return back to normalcy soon.

Interruption like this happen when there is world war or pandemic but this pandemic is much worse because all people can get infected and people are restricted in their movement and the economy is slowing down, we cannot go on like this for months, there should be drastic move like a cure, I have read that this is going to be permanent type of virus, and this will really hurt us.

And all we can do is hope countries would be able to contain this virus as soon as possible. China and South Korea has made an impressive progress in containing the virus and we could soon see them hosting their local sporting events. Japan could be the next with the similar expertise which is also going to host the olympics 2020. Even though Japan be ready in time, it would still be difficult to host a global event while rest of the globe is in panic.

Here in our country the PSL matches were going on different cities. The government has opted for closed matches without the crowd being allowed to come in the stadium. I think this is a very good approach and other sports governing bodies could also see this option. Players can still play and people can still enjoy the match at their home on TV screen or on you tube live streams.

This is happening everywhere as public gatherings are not recommended at current times. Conducting Sporting events is very risky and therefore we are seeing a lot of tournaments getting delayed or postposed. Premier league matches are most effected by it and all of them have been postponed till further notice. There is nothing much anyone can do about it, other than to wait.

I also see the match has an empty audience on television because the government tells that the game starts without an audience. No wonder that the player is not playing as usual because they feel that the stadium is too big for them. But in some countries, the local league has been cancel because of Corona, and there is no clear statement when the match will continue. We hope that Corona Virus can be solved, and the vaccine will be found.

Even better than a game being cancelled, at least PSL were able to continue and play according to schedule and those people who are quarantine at home, they'll be enjoy watching the game and of course they will enjoy more because they can bet through online sports betting.

That's it, some professional leagues are already ending the season and declaring champions.

First one was Lithuanian Basketball League, they declared Zalgiris new 9 (old) champion for season 2019/2020
Quote
Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL) Board has decided to take all the necessary safety actions regarding the spread of COVID-19 virus in the country.
World Health Organization has declared an outbreak a world-wide pandemic. Due to Force Majeure, LKL Board has decided to end the 2019/20 Betsafe LKL season and crown current regular-season leaders, Zalgiris Kaunas, as the champions of 27th Betsafe LKL season.
Source (https://www.eurohoops.net/en/others/1038440/lithuanian-league-ends-season-crowns-zalgiris-as-champion/)

After Lithuanian, same thing did Belgian basketball league
Quote
In consultation with Basketball Belgium the Pro Basketball League has decided today to cancel the EuroMillions Basketball league in first division due to the coronavirus. This decision was made in order to protect the health of players, clubs and fans and to halt the spread of the virus based on the government’s recent decisions.
FILOU Oostende is proclaimed champion and the current standings will serve for the allocation of the European tickets. In order to allow our clubs to prepare for next season following this decision, the granting of the licences has been postponed until 15 May.

I think that we can expect similar thing in some other sports too, especially if some team has huge lead and is almost certain that they would win the title. In European football a lot of things will depend on decision whether European Championship is cancelled or not, and if postponed, when it will be. Some rumours on Telegraph even said Euro might go on during December.

There are so many events in the world that are no cancelled because of covid-19 to prevent of spreading, so that the only way to prevent it is to avoid the crowd/many people because it is the fastest way in spreading the virus. Stay safe everyone and let's fight the virus.

Being a cricket fan I was following the Corona virus news since sometime and already the ODI series between India vs South Africa (cricket) has been decided to be played in an empty stadium which is in itself a historic decision.

Moving forward I heard that IPL might be cancelled as well for this year and there are rumors that a lot of other cricket events are being cancelled and there are some tennis opens that are now cancelled because of the Corona fear and to avoid public gatherings.

I appreciate such measures but being a sports fan and bettor I am really upset with the delays and cancellation of events.

The World Health Organization (WHO) have stated that pandemic corona virus is a dangerous plague so they ask to all president on this world to warn up to raise the outbreak as a national emergency that must be taken seriously. Like in my country, the government has taken a step to dismiss all activities of the government and stoping all activities that involve a lot of people (including footbal event). Yeah I think this situation will take a few week ahead, so for those who like sport betting you can store your money or you can play in anither gambling place.

Provably majority of them will close down there games temporarily since its been advice by WHO to avoid crowded places and for incident that there are NBA player who transmit the virus to his teammate for sure the temporary closed down will be imposed, and we shouldn't get sad for that and think positive on this since we can watch their plays again once the virus will be controlled and vanished away.

Here in India, we have well over a dozen sports channels and most of the time there will be multiple cricket matches being broadcast live on various channels. But for the last few days, the only live action I have been able to follow has been the PSL of Pakistan. All the other cricket matches have been either cancelled or postponed. The BCCI have postponed the IPL (world's largest T20 league) by almost a month and they have cancelled all of the domestic matches.

Now there is almost no activity in the crowd because to prevent this corona virus, including sports where many viewers will be postponed until the situation recovers and for school almost all of it is vacated because the situation is increasingly tense and some work is increasingly hampered, so now don't it's too much to watch NBA or other sports, it's better for us to be able to stay clear of what we can to avoid the corona virus.
All sports will return within the next few months including gambling with other contacts as well.

I first known about NBA being suspended but I knew other league and sports will be affected, and now here it is and definitely we can expect that more and more will be affected on this corona virus pandemic. A little suggestion, you can also add some link of the source info.
You will find the link above useful for the same reason, by the way I believe there should be a better managed OP for all the events with references and maybe the delayed events can be also listed with possible re-scheduled dates.
