One year on from the start of the Ukraine war, we explore the moral and financial dilemma facing Wimbledon and the Lawn Tennis Association as they come under increasing pressure to fall into line with the rest of tennis and lift their ban on players from Russia and Belarus.
We hear from Ukrainian tennis player turned soldier Sergiy Stakhovsky and the presenter of the BBC’s Ukrainecast podcast Vitaly Shevchenko as we discuss the importance of sporting sanctions and the debate over athletes from Russia and Belarus at the Paris 2024 Olympics.
