Russian Daniil Medvedev says he “feels sorry” for Ukrainian players competing on tour amid the invasion of their country.
It comes after Ukraine’s Lesia Tsurenko withdrew from her match against Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka due what she said was a panic attack. Tsurenko said she had been left “absolutely shocked” following a discussion with Steve Simon, the head of the WTA Tour, about the sport’s response to the ongoing war.
