WTA plans to impose sanctions against Wimbledon and LTA due to the suspension of the Russians

This is reported by L'Equipe with reference to an email that the head of the WTA Steve Simon addressed to the athletes.

On April 20, it was announced that the applications of Russian and Belarusian tennis players to participate in Wimbledon would be rejected due to the situation in Ukraine.

Wimbledon will be held from June 27 to July 10 in the suburbs of London.

Earlier, the 1989 Roland Garros semi-finalist Andrei Chesnokov supported the position of Andrei Rublev, who expressed his readiness to send the prize money for Wimbledon to humanitarian aid if he participated in the tournament.
