The North Palmyra Trophies, which took place six months after Russia's invasion into Ukraine, was sponsored by Gazprom, an oil company Oliynykova called “one of the key financial pillars of Russia's war machine.“These are the same funds Russia uses to kill and maim Ukrainian women and children, and to destroy our families and cities,” said the 25-year-old.“From a moral standpoint, accepting Gazprom money in December 2022 is equivalent to playing in Nazi Germany in 1941 and being paid with property taken from victims of death camps.

Maestrelli had qualified to reach his first major main draw, then beat last year's Cincinnati semifinalist, Terence Atmane, in the first round.
