Both Belarusians were unable to play their matches on Tuesday, March 3, as sounds of explosions were heard over the courts. As a result, the organizers decided to completely cancel both tournaments.
The former Belarusian number one player Ilya Ivashka reacted to this news on his Instagram page. He quoted the content of a letter sent by ATP to participants in the UAE competitions.
