Statements just now from the ATP and ITF, neither of which follow the WTA’s decisive action in suspending tournaments in China. Neither statement even uses the word “China”! Flaccid stuff.

With Navratilova looking on, poignant words from Barbora Krejcikova about how much better Czech life has been since the fall of communism there in 1989. Intentionally or not, a message that fits perfectly with women's tennis standing up to the Chinese Communist Party this week.
Congratulations to @Ons_Jabeur on becoming #Tunisia first #top10 #tennis player! Looking forward to hitting with you at Tennis Club de Tunis :)
