World No. 1 women’s player Aryna Sabalenka says tennis players could boycott Grand Slam tournaments if negotiations over prize money do not lead to a larger share of revenue for players. Speaking around the Italian Open, Sabalenka says that a boycott is something that could happen “at some point,” framing it as a potential way to “fight for our rights.” The comments come after a group of leading players, including top-10 ATP and WTA names, respond to what they describe as collective disappointment with the 2026 French Open prize-money distribution. Multiple outlets report that Sabalenka ties the dispute to arguments that Grand Slams should provide players with a greater portion of their growing earnings. While sources differ slightly in emphasis and wording, they broadly agree that Sabalenka is advocating collective player action and that the French Open prize-money announcement is the immediate trigger for the renewed pressure on the sport’s major governing and tournament bodies. Some reports also note that the discussion involves both men’s and women’s players, reflecting a wider, cross-tour concern about how revenue is shared.
