Ukrainian qualifier Lesia Tsurenko withdrew from her third-round match at Indian Wells against Belarusian second seed Aryna Sabalenka after suffering a panic attack following a chat with the WTA's chief executive, she said on Monday.
"I was absolutely shocked by what I heard. He told me that he himself does not support the war, but if the players from Russia and Belarus , then this is only their own opinion, and the opinion of other people should not upset me," she said.
Responding to a request for comment, the WTA told Reuters: "The WTA has consistently reflected our full support for Ukraine and strongly condemn the actions that have been brought forth by the Russian Government. Tsurenko added that the WTA boss expressed his confidence in the Russians and Belarusians returning to the Olympics.
Tsurenko said her conversation with the WTA chief took place before her second-round victory against Vekic.
