Russian and Belarusian tennis players can compete under a neutral flag at the last Grand Slam tournament of the season, the US Open.
The organizers announced on Tuesday that Russian and Belarusian players will be allowed to participate in the match between August 29 and September 11, but they will not be able to use their flags.
Due to the Russian-Ukrainian war that began on February 24, Russian and Belarusian athletes have been banned from several sports or can only compete in neutral colors. In Wimbledon, for example, the English organizers did not allow them to start, but they do not distribute world ranking points at the tournament.
