The All England Club’s decision is a reversal of a policy that drew criticism last year. It will open the door for several top players to compete as neutrals.
Tennis players from Russia and Belarus will be allowed to compete at Wimbledon this summer after tournament officials reversed a policy that had barred them last year in the months after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
The decision to bar the players had drawn criticism at the time, even inside tennis, and the reversal of it had been expected.
