Rybakina has a run-in with a journalist when asked about the 15-minute boycott: "Do you want me to stay longer?"

Throughout the day, we have been hearing the tennis players speak at the Media Day of Roland Garros 2026 about the boycott they have orchestrated to avoid engaging with the media for more than 15 minutes. Elena Rybakina was not exempt from the question, although there was some tension with the specific journalist. 

When asked if she would only be available for 15 minutes, the Kazakh responded, "Do you want me to stay longer?" To which the journalist added, 'I can try'. That's when Rybakina realized it was time to cut to the chase: "I don't think so, in fact, I usually stay much longer, so I wouldn't call it a boycott either," stated the current world No. 2.

This is an automatic translation. You can read the original news, Rybakina la tiene con un periodista al preguntarle por el boicot de los 15 minutos: “¿Quieres que me quede más tiempo?”
