Tennis stars competing at Wimbledon this summer will not pick up any ranking points.


It follows after players from Russia and Belarusia were banned from taking part because of the invasion of Ukraine.

The ATP, which governs the men’s game says the move sets a “damaging precedent for the rest of the tour”. 

The All England Club says it realises how hard this will be on players but that the government left them with no viable alternative.
