Russian and Belarusian flags have been banned from the Australian Open tennis tournament after a courtside incident.

Spectators were initially permitted to bring the flags into Melbourne Park on the condition they did not cause disruption.

But the organizers reversed that decision after fans displayed a Russian flag during a match between Ukraine’s Kateryna Baindl and Russian Kamilla Rakhimova.
