Just one of the many comments currently on-line, after Rybakina's win. Just because I felt it was a very well condensed analysis:
"Despite the ban, a born and raised Russian ended up winning the title anyway, emphasizing how pointless and punitive the controversial ban was to begin with. It’s not clear if Rybakina continues to live and train in Moscow, but even if she does, she had the same part in the invasion of Ukraine as absent players Daniil Medvedev, Aryna Sabalenka, and Andrey Rublev did: none."

Sometimes, a writer can indeed summarize something briefly, succinctly and clearly. To those of us that appreciate written analysis, wonderful writing.

1 billion % in agreement with this. These players had nothing to do with the invasion of Ukraine and I would say that all of them are against it. It was totally the wrong decision to ban these athletes from playing in this event. The thing that blows my mind and some of you might disagree with me on this, but Wimbledon allowed Novak Djokovic to participate in the tournament although he refuses to get vaccinated and 3 players come down with Covid during the event, but they ban the Russian athletes from the event that had no involvement at all in the Ukraine invasion. It doesn't make any sense at all. Now I am not saying that Novak was the cause of these players of getting Covid because he wasn't, but this is something that Wimbledon should have taken way more seriously than the banning of the Russian players who had zero involvement in this crisis in Ukraine. This is just my 2 cents.

I watched this match today and I say in 5 years she will be in the top 10.
