In her recent interview Marta said much about respect ant hatred. In fact people who are talking constantly about this, calling for respect, understanding and compation, usually show examples of disrespect and multiplicate hatred by their own behaviour
What a bunch of ignorance you tennis people!!! We are talking about a war, people dying in our time, because of those with killer instinct, russians and belarusians, unprovoked, backwards countries and you have fun watching them, playing tennis!!! Few of them talked against war!!!
Kostyuk it's a young smart player who deserve respect, not like Sabalenca which dodging the questions about the war, shame on her and everybody here, which are on the side of Russians!!! And shame On tennis associations letting them play!!!
Marta really doesn't stand much of a chance. She is being out muscled and is no match competitively. That's just referring to the tennis. If fans are hoping otherwise for geopolitical reasons it is understandable. But it won't change the reality of what is happening on the court. I'm glad it doesn't reflect anything but talent on the court.
That being said, I think the Ukrainian players are playing with so much more internal dialogue when facing Russian or Belarusian opponents. That too is understandable.
According to Kostyuk russians that havent moved out since war support it. However most people believe they cannot change anything, so they just ignore it. Promoting hatred is so much easier when you are an ignorant...

Maybe they like most of us, want this NATO war to end.
Now out of the EU, they seem to care so much.
Hoping she can stay with Aryna & steal a Tiebreaker or 2.
