sports tennis

World number one Aryna Sabalenka believes tennis players may boycott a Grand Slam at some point due to an ongoing dispute over prize money.

Sabalenka stated that players should organize a boycott if they do not start receiving a bigger share of tournament revenues at the Grand Slams. She specifically noted that players would boycott the French Open if prize money at the claycourt event is not increased.

Following a statement from players regarding French Open prize money, Sabalenka suggested that a boycott may be the only way to fight for their rights. Other players, including Coco Gauff, Elena Rybakina, and Jasmine Paolini, are also prepared to protest.
