TL;DR
- Published World number one Aryna Sabalenka believes players will boycott a Grand Slam "at some point" because of the ongoing dispute over prize money. The men's and women's top-10 players are demanding a higher percentage of the revenue generated by the four majors, as well as benefit contributions and a greater say in areas such as scheduling. But until Sabalenka spoke to the media in Rome before the Italian Open, players had been circumspect on the subject of strike action.
