Ukrainian tennis player, Dayana Yastremska has called on the WTA to implement measures on the tour as her sister Ivanka Yastremska had a horrifying experience clutching her dog during an attack on Odessa.
Russia launched a second night of air attacks on the city on Tuesday, July 18 and the locals were exposed to loud explosions as at least one missile landed within the city limits.
The situation was so bad that Yastremska's sister hid in the bathroom with her dog all night. Dayana took to Instagram to share her discontent at this.
"She has to sleep in the bathroom because of this fu""ng [Russia]" she wrote on her Instagram stories.
She went on to insinuate that Russian players have no inconvenience and urged the WTA to change their opinion.
"Just check my stories, or maybe you would like a live video or visit Ukraine so [that] you can change your opinion. Someone sleeps well now, you know who I mean and someone is trying to survive. All Ukraine players during the tournament are awake because they are following all the news. Is that fair?," Yastremska stated.

Sorry, dear. People all over the world have friends and family from Russia and Belarus and Ukraine hiding and/or dying in Ukraine, Crimea and Belarus. The everyday people in those populations understand the difference between the moral majority of harmless citizenry and any given communist dictatorship in power. You cannot blame the Citizens for the actions of their Dictators.

If your colleagues do not support the invasion(s) then what is your problem (other than personal)? You've arguably traveled the world meeting people from various countries with differing political stances. You find all those people to be a threat?

Wealthy tennis players, who cry foul yet continue with their relatively safe and cushy tour lives, are apparently not willing to return home and fight the fight.

There are no legitimate excuses as to why you want others to act-out against people you do not like if you're not willing to go home and sleep in that bathroom with your sister.

Just In
