Forums:

Hi Judit, thinking of you!

Just sent an email to the ITF and WTA, and filled out comment forms on the ATP and Tennis Channel sites:

SUBJECT:  Russian invasion of Ukraine and player representation protocol

Hello,
As United States citizens and fans of professional tennis, we have been pleased that the ITF, ATP, and WTA have supported Ukraine by requiring Russian and Belarusian athletes to compete without their countries' flags.  We now feel that the Trump administration's current support of Russia and suspension of support of Ukraine requires the extension of your protocol to US athletes, starting immediately with the Indian Wells 1000, and applying to all television and online coverage.
Sincerely,
...

Hi, Dave. I think you're absolutely right. I'll join this movement, thanks. Emails to be send later after a short walk in the sun.

I support Svitolina, the over 50 Ukrainian pro tennis players, and the Ukrainian people.

And as the sticker Jazfish sent us said, Fuck Putin.

Thanks for the info, I will send emails tomorrow, so beautiful for professional tennis to take a stand for common sense.

Done.

I heart this!

In case any of you are interested in pro tennis, there's a thread in The sports Folder. I'm usually the only one posting these days, and as such, not often. Please join in.

Fuck Putin, Musk, and Trump with a cactus.

I'm not a fan of pro tennis, but we need to resist evil on every front. Emails sent.
