Wimbledon chiefs have avoided the embarrassment of being forced to play host to another awkward interview after defending women's champion Elena Rybakina crashed out of the tournament.
Rybakina was born in Moscow and represented Russia until 2015, when she switched nationality to Kazakhstan after gaining citizenship in the country. Russia has of course been sidelined by the international community, both in and out of sport, after their invasion of Ukraine.
Since then, athletes from both Russia and Belarus have been asked to condemn their countries' actions in order to compete. Rybakina was able to avoid those questions until last year's Wimbledon final.
