Wimbledon:
ATP & WTA strip ranking points from Grand Slam over ban for Russians and Belarusians; Players will not receive ranking points at Wimbledon following the decision to ban Russian and Belarusian competitors from the tournament.
Players from the countries have been banned by the All England Lawn Tennis Club from all UK grass-court events after the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
However, events outside Wimbledon, such as Queen's and Eastbourne, will retain their ranking points.
"It is with great regret and reluctance that we see no option," said the ATP.
The WTA said it was a "difficult decision".
The International Tennis Federation (ITF) will not grant ranking points in the junior and wheelchair events at Wimbledon, which starts on 27 June.
