Daria Saville: "I can’t even imagine how the Ukrainian players are feeling right now" The Australian was the first player who urged her peers to support Ukraine and wear blue and yellow outfits or accessories on the court. "To be honest, probably the tennis community does not support Ukraine enough. We could support more. I must say that I am very upset by the decision of the ATP and WTA on Wimbledon. It turns out that they punish everyone. I can’t even imagine how the Ukrainian players are feeling right now. They probably feel like the other side was chosen and not theirs. I'm really sorry that this is happening". Three days after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Daria Saville posted on Twitter: "Russia. Stop the war. Silence in the current situation is equal to complicity. Putin, stop the war. The army, go back home!". "I have many friends among Ukrainian players, Elina, we are the same age, Marta. The girls texted me back and thanked me for their support. In fact, for me it was an absolutely normal decision, I wanted to play in the Ukrainian colors myself. That was kind of my point view of what is happening, that I really support Ukraine. Now I just have the feeling that I don’t know what else can be done, because I just play tennis. It’s a big regret that all of this is happening in Ukraine right now". Website BTU - Ukrainian Tennis - joins the fundraising to help internally displaced persons in Dnipropetrovsk Region
