Silver medal at the World Championships in Athletics Yolanda Chen on the air of the program “There is a theme!” on “” commented on the non-admission of Russians Polina Kudermetova at Wimbledon, noting the organizers’ reluctance to see the Russians at the tournament.
The fact that Kudermetova will miss Wimbledon became known on Monday, the reason for withdrawal from the tournament was given as “schedule changes”. The father of the athlete Eduard on the air of the program “There is a theme!” said she had been refused a UK visa. Additionally, reports have surfaced that our tennis players at Wimbledon are required to prove termination of sponsorship contracts with companies on the sanctions lists. The reason could be the case of Polina’s sister, Veronika Kudermetova, who cooperates with Tatneft and was forced to withdraw the stripes of the company at Roland Garros.
– That would be energy – but in a peaceful direction! I’m talking about the organizers of Wimbledon. It’s a special tournament. They want to be different in everything. In America, Australia solves the problems. And it’s all in the tradition. Even tennis players are fed up.
They have a desire not to see Russian athletes. By all means, they will. If I were the girls I would ask Tatneft to send a paper to Wimbledon stating that the contract with the girls has been terminated, which is not true.
At least half a million rubles will cost Polina Kudermetova a trip to a tournament in Sweden. In the team she is lucky. In tennis, everything is up to you. And so at every tournament. And more prestigious tournaments are more expensive,” Chen said on .
Wimbledon will take place from July 3 to 16.
