Or they will just waive it because the Davis/BJK Cup requirement is more of a suggestion than anything else :P

 

But ya, either way, it would be pretty ridiculous to say Russian / Bielorussian athletes can qualify as individuals, but then ban them because they didn't compete in a team event that their country is banned in.

I can provide some details on this. According to the latest stetment by Tarpishchev (president of russian tennis federation):

 

MSingles: Medvedev, Rublev, Khachanov*, Safiullin 

 

WSingles: Kasatkina, Samsonova, Aleksandorva, M.Andreeva

 

2 important notes:

- he said nothing about doubles (despite of the high enough ranking position of Zvonareva)

- he remarked that this squad will take part if the athltes will be allowed by compete *

 

* by now we know about at least one case of russian tennis player (Khachanov) beeing accused of pro-war activity in soical networks.

Unless they are already adjusting for protected rankings, but if that is the case, Rafa should be showing as Q. Which he isn't.

Hi, is the list of qualified players listed by ITA anywhere

I think it will be out earliest of 19th June as it's the deadline until national tennis federations should confirm the name lists. Then may come the reallocations....

[Cobi 1,013]

The Spanish team has been announced and Paula Badosa  wont't use her protected ranking. 

 

Singles:

• Carlos Alcaraz
• Rafael Nadal
• Pablo Carreño
• Alejandro Davidovich

 

• Sara Sorribes
• Cristina Bucsa

 

Pairs:

• Carlos Alcaraz & Rafael Nadal
• Marcel Granollers & TBD

 

• Sara Sorribes & Cristina Bucsa

 

The mixed pair will be decided during the Olympics and Jessica Bouzas will join the team if she receives a reallocation.

Yes, wiki said this also.

 

She was first in order. But Mertens and Badosa won't start (both confirmed).

not sure wiki is a reliable source. plus they change it million times per day, this morning I checked she was 54th in that table, a hour later she suddenly was not there at all, now she is back 57th last qualified, so yeah...

 

I will believe it once it will be confirmed, for now I am rather sceptical, I assume plenty of players want/will use their protected ranking for Paris so at the end of the day it will still end as usual, first or second non-qualified. You know our Paris qualifiers trade mark

In our totallympics list girl from Slovakia is first - but they still have Mertens (ITF official website said that she won't play - so it's sure https://www.itftennis.com/en/news-and-media/articles/first-players-confirmed-to-take-part-in-olympic-tennis-event-at-paris-2024/).
