Tennis players from Russia and Belarus will be allowed to compete at Wimbledon 2023 as neutrals after being fully banned from the tournament last year.

As neutrals, Russian and Belarusian athletes won’t have flags shown next to their names, nor will their national anthems be played at matches.

Wimbledon is also still barring the entry of players who receive any funding or sponsorship from the two states or companies they might operate or control.
