Would be hilarious if she dedicates her victory to the Russian forces in the special operation

there is no fine, ATP did not sue. just no ranking points.

There was a fine look it up

Although the all England club appealed

Lmao major Ivan Drago vibes with this celebration.

The commentators criticising Rybakina for not exploding with joy winning the final point...maybe that was because the unsportsmanlike crowd hardly made a noise when she won it.

Hypocrites.

Ended up with one men's SF and despite themselves a Russuian women's winner.

That's punishment enough.

Still utter humiliation for them considering the lengths they went to

yeah there I agree. I was against Russian / Belarusian ban. I wanted to see all tennis players.

Why appeal then ?

Why appeal then ?

WTA acted differently, it looks like indeed. I was more interested in men's side.
