Tennis great Billie Jean King's called on Wimbledon to end its ban of Russian and Belarusian players for this year's tournament.

Half of the four women's singles semi-finalists at the Australian Open are from those countries.

The All-England Club imposed the rule because of the invasion of Ukraine.

King says Wimbledon should follow other tournaments by allowing players from affected countries to compete under a neutral flag.
