Aryna Sabalenka, the current No. 1 women's tennis player in the world and a four-time major champion, is endorsing the Women’s Tennis Association’s (WTA) newly implemented genetic testing requirements for its athletes. Speaking at a press conference during the Canadian Open, the Belarusian star discussed the need to preserve fairness on the women’s tour. "Biologically, men are way stronger than women, so I feel like it would not really be fair for women to compete against biological men," she told reporters. Sabalenka added that she is fully prepared to undergo the genetic screening herself, calling the policy a necessary step to protect the integrity of the sport.
