Australian Open white flag: Why are players playing under it?

The Australian Open is at the final stage as athletes from all over the world vie to take out one of tennis’ most coveted titles. While the Australian Open has not gone to these lengths, it has designated that certain players be required to play under a white flag, rather than the flag of their nation. This decision affects a number of high-level players, including top 20 men’s players Andrey Rublev, Daniil Medvedev, and Karen Khachanov, and top 20 women’s players Aryna Sabalenka, Daria Kasatkina, Veronika Kudermetova, Liudmila Samsonova and Ekaterina Alexandrova. I strongly condemn the public display of the Russian flag during the game of the Ukrainian tennis player Kateryna Baindl at the Australian Open today. “Flags from Russia and Belarus are banned onsite at the Australian Open,” Tennis Australia said via a statement.
