Kim Clijsters has weighed in on the growing debate surrounding Grand Slam prize money, as Iga Swiatek calls for urgent talks between players and tournament organizers at Roland Garros. The world number one wants a sit-down to address ongoing revenue disagreements, but she's not ready to join the boycott threats made by some of her peers.

Both Aryna Sabalenka and Coco Gauff have publicly stated they would skip Grand Slams in protest, demanding a fairer split of the revenue. But Swiatek is taking a more measured approach. "Boycotting the tournament, it's a bit of an extreme situation. Hopefully, before Roland Garros, there's going to be an opportunity to have these types of meetings, and we'll see how they go," she said.

Speaking on the latest episode of 'Love All,' Clijsters shared her perspective, drawing from her own experiences as a former world number one. "It is not a new topic. I feel like years ago, when I was a youngster growing up with Venus and Serena Williams as role models, when it came to equal pay for women, I know Venus was in the meeting rooms at Grand Slams and talking to tournament directors, proving a point of why we deserve to be paid equally. She succeeded," said Clijsters. "The word boycott was being thrown out at times as well."

The Belgian legend praised Swiatek's stance, noting that it strikes a balance between pushing for change and keeping dialogue open. "I think where Iga stands with her comments was that 'okay, maybe boycotting right now seems a little extreme, but let's keep negotiating and then if nothing happens let's see.' I think the approach I would take is, let's have these top players sit in the meeting rooms and see what the challenges are."

Clijsters also highlighted the need for key players to step up if meaningful change is going to happen, and touched on how current prize money levels affect those outside the spotlight. This year, just 446 women have earned more than $10,000 on the WTA Tour—numbers that pale in comparison to other major sports and underline why so many players are speaking out now.

Sabalenka, Swiatek, and Gauff weren't the only ones addressing boycott questions during media day at the Italian Open. World number two Elena Rybakina was also asked about the possibility of players boycotting a Grand Slam to push for change, calling it "a tough" situation for everyone involved.
