Medvedev instead of Djokovic the world number 1

The tennis association ATP has decided that there are no world ranking points up for grabs at Wimbledon this year. The reason for this measure is the exclusion of players from Russia and Belarus.

In a communiqué, the organization of men’s tennis refers to the fundamental principle that “all players without discrimination and solely on the basis of their merits” are entitled to play in their tournaments. With its arbitrary decision, Wimbledon set a dangerous precedent. One therefore sees oneself “with great regret” forced to withdraw the ranking points from the Wimbledon tournament in 2022.
