Kaitlin Quevedo was at the centre of an armband dispute after the WTA first refused to let her wear a black armband honouring victims of the Urda tragedy in Toledo. The tour later reversed course and allowed the tribute, then publicly explained its handling of the situation.
The WTA has spoken out about why it initially stopped Quevedo from paying tribute to the Toledo crash victims.
After the backlash, the governing body changed its mind and permitted her to wear the black armband.
Quevedo had wanted the armband to honour those lost in the Urda tragedy, a cause close to home for the Spanish player.
