The world's leading players have ended their boycott of Wimbledon media duties after "constructive meetings" with the All England Club.
World number ones Aryna Sabalenka and Jannik Sinner were among the stars who limited their media appearances to 15 minutes on Saturday and Sunday in protest at the amount of prize money on offer at the Grand Slams.
The group, which also includes major champions Coco Gauff and Iga Swiatek, want the Grand Slams to put a greater share of their revenue towards prize money, as well as an increased contribution to welfare benefits such as pensions and maternity leave.
The action was supposed to take place over the entire first week of the Championships.
But the players' representatives said they have decided to resume their full commitments immediately, given the positive nature of talks with Wimbledon organisers.
