It started when Aryna Sabalenka suggested players might walk away from Grand Slams if enough of them got behind the idea. Coco Gauff followed up by saying she’d support a boycott as well. But not everyone’s on board.
Emma Raducanu said she wouldn’t take part because of her love for the majors.

The Italian backed up Raducanu’s comments regarding her love of the Grand Slams, but added: “It’s more about respect, you know?
Because I think we give much more than what we are getting back. It’s not only for the top players; it’s for all of us players. Again, from men’s and women’s side, we are very, very equal.
