I’m watching the Indian Wells tennis tournament. Why do they continue not to show the Russian flag next to the names of Russian players? This is just fucking stupid at this point.

Same reason why North Koreans didn't have a flag in the Olympics. It's because officially they don't represent the country, because their country is banned from being represented. -

@hakui @FranciscoScaramanga Yeah, it's stupid. Everybody knows that they are Russian anyway.
You can participate, but can't show your home country flag. What logic is that. -
