The International Tennis Federation (ITF) has banned Russia and Belarus from participating in team tennis competitions after the invasion of Ukraine, according to the British newspaper The Daily Mail.

The federation has excluded both countries from international team competitions, including the Davis Cup, the Billie Jean King Cup and the ATP Cup. However, it refused to prohibit some players from participating in competitions. They will continue, but will play under a neutral flag.

We mean Danylo Medvedev, who was allowed to participate in tournaments around the world.

The ITF has also canceled tennis tournaments in Russia and Belarus.

It will be recalled that today, 1 March, the International Floorball Federation (IFF) suspended the National Floorball Federation of Russia and the Floorball Federation of Belarus from any international floorball events indefinitely.
