This week the All England club made an important decision to ban players from Russia and Belarus from playing at Wimbledon this year. After this decision was made, it immediately caused a huge controversy. Numerous agencies and stars, including ATP and WTA officials, have expressed their dissatisfaction with Wimbledon's decision.
After being banned, ATP World No. 8 Rublev talked about his views on the matter. Rublev said the All England club was completely unreasonable, completely illogical and would not change the course of events.
Rublev said in an interview that after Wimbledon's decision to ban, he spoke with some of the other affected players to discuss the current situation and whether there was a solution. But the results of the telephone communication were disappointing, and Wimbledon did not give them any solution to the problem, but simply banned them.
Rublev even proposed that if Wimbledon allowed him to compete, he could donate the prize money he received at Wimbledon to help those in need of help in the war.
In fact, shortly after the clashes, Rublev made his opposition to the war clearly after the match. But none of this will help, Wimbledon's decision has been made, at least this year, it will be difficult to change.
In addition to Rublev, another player who was suspended, Khachanov, also expressed his views. Khachanov said he was very sad, disappointed and frustrated, and at this stage of the development of things, he was very sad about the decision.
