The former tennis player did not like the organizers ’decision to allow athletes from aggressor countries to participate in the tournament.
Sergei Stakhovsky condemned the organizers of the US Open, which surrendered to the ATP and WTA and allowed athletes from aggressor countries to participate in the tournament.
At the same time, the former tennis player praised Wimbledon’s bold decision to confront international tennis organizations and remove Russians and Belarusians from competitions.
“You can’t put a price tag on being live on your own. Congratulations to Wimbledon, the only organization with a moral code,” Stakhovsky wrote.
It will be recalled that at the US Open, the Russians and Belarusians will perform in a neutral status. But Wimbledon banned these tennis players from playing, with the WTA and ATP eliminating the tournament by ranking points.
