What did they do

Wimbledon correct.

who care. its more important to send out the message, loud and clear and for those players to send out the message that it is the fault of Putin and no one else.

Good

Ban all Russians and their slaves, the Serbs, for life! They are staunchly pro-authoritarian neo-fascists

Well if every player got banned from something the country past and present they be no players

Good.

Surely the question is why have the Tennis authorities not banned Russian players?

Good. Shame on you Wimbledon for banning players purely based on their nationality. You make me feel ashamed to be British

what is with the cancelling of everything that pees you off? i dont get it? i have said things out of anger and said i wouldnt use that brand again but then tbh a day later i thought to myself stop being a di*k you know you will, so shut up...

Rightfully so... I thought racism was a bad thing.

Since when did Djokovic become Russian?

good

Good! I don't remember the last time they told all Chinese players that they had to denounce Beijing for their abuse of the Uyghurs, or any other players from nations that have questionable human rights records. This is 'current thing' stupidity that deserves to be punished!

good ban Wimbledon for life built nothing of poor countries

ATP is corrupt to the very core. Well done Wimbledon

Wimbledon: ATP and WTA strip tournament of ranking points for banning Russian and Belarusian playersAndy Murray, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic are among those who have criticised Wimbledon's ban on athletes from Russia and Belarus. Governing bodies have now removed ranking points from the prestigious tournament - but organisers are standing by their decision. Who cares about the ATP. Wimbledon is the most prestigious tournament. All the top players want to be there. The Kudos of a win at Wimbledon opens many doors. The top players will all be there this year. It's the jewel in the crown. What a lot of BS, does this mean the WTA and atptour support Russia? If we could play a Xmas game with nazis... Surely sports could be a bridge
