The two traditional Wimbledon warm-up tournaments won't be stripped of ranking points despite their ban on Russian and Belarusian players.
Last month, the All England Tennis Club confirmed that players from both nations would be forbidden from playing the UK grass-court season this summer, including the iconic tournament at SW19. The decision was made by the authority, and the Lawn Tennis Association [LTA], amid the war in Ukraine.
An LTA statement said: "After careful consideration the LTA believes that tennis must join many other areas of sport and public life in sending a clear signal to the Russian and Belarusian states that their actions in Ukraine are the subject of international condemnation."
