Overview
- The Northern Palmyra Trophies exhibition is scheduled for November 29–30 at the Arena Sports Complex in St. Petersburg.
- Dutch Foreign Minister David Van Weel urged Tallon Griekspoor not to attend, and the Dutch tennis federation said it communicated its stance but that the decision is his.
- ATP and WTA classify players as independent contractors, so the tours cannot bar participation in off-calendar events and no sanctions have been indicated.
- The event is sponsored by Gazprom, a state-owned company sanctioned by the EU, United States and United Kingdom.
- Tennis365 reports Griekspoor appeared to dismiss the appeals in a now-deleted social media comment, and he remains listed in a field that includes Daniil Medvedev, Karen Khachanov and Alexander Bublik.
