Russian and Belarusian tennis players will be able to participate in the tournament, which will be held in Poland.
Earlier, organizers of the Challenger tennis tournament in the Polish town of Grodzisk-Mazowiecki called on Russian and Belarusian players not to apply to take part in the competition.
– The Polish side cannot influence the regulations of the international federation. Federations governing world sports are independent and autonomous organizations, therefore, the Ministry of Sports and Tourism does not have legal instruments with which it could influence the composition of participants in competitions organized by these federations, Sport.pl quotes a commentary from the Ministry of Sports and Tourism of Poland. .
The Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) and the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) allow Russian and Belarusian athletes to participate in tournaments in a neutral status.
