10 players out of ALGS Championship with COVID so far

In a repeat of the situation that Apex Legends Global Series teams faced just a couple of months ago in Sweden, several players slated to play in this weekend’s competition have been forced to withdraw due to positive COVID tests before the tournament even begins.

At least eight players have already tested positive for COVID, leaving their teams scrambling to find substitutes if they didn’t already have a coach who could fill in as an emergency sub at the ALGS Championship.
