ITF statement - Russian and Belarusian athletes entry into UK events

ITF statement - Russian and Belarusian athletes entry into UK grass court events:

“The ITF’s position on this issue has been clear and consistent from the start and remains the same. We acted swiftly to suspend the Russian Tennis Federation and Belarus Tennis Federation from ITF membership and from participation in ITF international competitions until further notice. Individual players can only compete on ITF tours as neutral athletes. At the time we recognised that there would be specific responses from nations, and this is what we saw with the LTA and All England Lawn Tennis Club last year. Their collective position has now evolved, and we continue to work closely with them on this issue. Tennis stands in solidarity with Ukraine.”
