Removing ranking points from Wimbledon not a great move, says Andy Murray
Wimbledon champion Andy Murray said on Monday the decision to strip the Grand Slam of its ranking points was not a "great move" by the ATP and WTA Tours. Wimbledon had its ranking points taken away by the men's ATP and women's WTA after the grasscourt major opted to exclude players from Russia and Belarus because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which Moscow calls a 'special operation'. "Removing the points, if it doesn't stop players from playing then I don't think it's a great move from the ATP," Murray told reporters after moving into the second round of the Surbiton Trophy grasscourt event.
