Former ninth racket in the world in singles Andrey Chesnokov believes that this year, Russian and Belarusian tennis players must miss a series of grass court tournaments due to the fact that players were not allowed at Wimbledon.
The grass season is the shortest on the calendars of the ATP and WTA (men’s and women’s professional tennis associations). In 2022, the season will start on June 6. The last grass-court tournament of the season will be Wimbledon, which will be held from June 27 to July 4.
“The short grass season is about to begin. But this year, Russian tennis players will not be able to participate in the main tournament of this season – Wimbledon. Should they even go out on the grass in such a situation?
– What is the point of playing a tournament on grass? McEnroe said very well that let all players take and refuse Wimbledon in the same way as in 1973 (then the ATP boycotted the tournament in protest against the disqualification of the Yugoslav tennis player Nikola Pilic – about “”) .
– So you can already start preparing for the hard?
— I haven’t seen the schedule, so I don’t know if there are any difficult tournaments before Wimbledon. But what good is going out on the grass if there are no Russians and Belarusians at Wimbledon?
