Players from Russia and Belarus, including women’s top seed Aryna Sabalenka and former US Open champion Daniil Medvedev, compete at Wimbledon without a country or flag beside their names.
It follows World Tennis – formerly the International Tennis Federation – keeping the two nations’ suspensions in place over the war in Ukraine.
In May 2026, the organisation confirmed that an International Olympic Committee policy shift “does not change its existing position” on the suspensions.
Russia and Belarus also remain banned from team events such as the Davis Cup and Billie Jean King Cup.
