Russian No 1 Andrey Rublev has shared the proposals he gave to Wimbledon after players from the country were banned in the wake of the war in Ukraine.
The 24-year-old spoke out against the war back in February but admitted that the only way to play at SW19 would have been to change citizenship - something he is now considering if Russians are banned from all events.
Rublev was one of the first Russian players to speak publicly about the invasion of Ukraine, writing "no war please" on the camera at the Dubai Championships, an ATP 500 tournament he ended up winning.
But the Moscow-born star still found himself banned from Wimbledon earlier this month alongside all other players representing Russia and Belarus.
