Anticipation is building among tennis fans as Wimbledon - arguably the single biggest tournament on the tennis calendar - draws nearer.
This year’s Wimbledon has been overshadowed by controversy, however, after organisers took the decision to bar Russian and Belarusian players from participating in the competition following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Among those affected by this decision is Russia ’s Daniil Medvedev, currently ranked as world number two in the men’s game behind reigning Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic.
