If you didn’t know, Wimbledon banned Russian and Belarusian players from the 2022 Championships due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which caused Novak to speak out.
“I will always condemn war. I will never support war being myself a child of war,” the Serbia-born star said.
“I know how much emotional trauma it leaves. In Serbia we all know what happened in 1999. In the Balkans, we have had many wars in recent history. However, I cannot support the decision of Wimbledon, I think it is crazy. When politics interferes with sport, the result is not good,” he continued.
