WASHINGTON: World No 9 Taylor Fritz said climate activists need to find a better way of protesting instead of “annoying” sports fans by interrupting events after his Washington Open match against Andy Murray was briefly halted yesterday.
Some of them unfurled banners in the stands calling on tournament sponsors Mubadala and Citi to stop funding the fossil fuel industry.“I don’t understand how people are going to get behind a cause when you’re ruining everyone else’s good time. Like, it doesn’t really make sense to me.” The second Ashes cricket test at Lord’s, the Premiership Rugby final, the World Snooker Championship, golf’s British Open, and the Grand National horse race have also witnessed climate protests this year.
