- The Russians – about Medvedev’s victory at the Rotterdam tournament: “I lured the Italian into a trap”
“I believe that we are fully in line with the recommendations of the IOC. Our players cannot participate in team competitions under their own flags, as in other sports. At the same time, there are sports which prohibit the participation of individual athletes. Generally speaking, we don’t believe in “collective guilt”. These guys haven’t done anything wrong. They’ve played tennis all their lives. We think it’s fair to give them the same opportunity. They should be able to compete, have a voice, have a say.”
We all remember Rublev’s message to the camera. It is an important message. We want these tennis players to play so they can express their feelings – even to reach out to their people, their country. To show their side of the story,” Globo.com quoted Gaudenzi as saying.
