Ten months ago, the PTPA filed an antitrust lawsuit that named the ATP and WTA Tours, International Tennis Federation (ITF) and International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) as defendants.
The men’s tour responded by stating, “We strongly reject the premise of the PTPA’s claims, believe the case to be entirely without merit, and will vigorously defend our position. ATP remains committed to working in the best interests of the game – towards continued growth, financial stability, and the best possible future for our players, tournaments, and fans.”
Before forming the PTPA, Djokovic served as ATP Player Council president from 2016-20.
The 38-year-old is coming off a year where he reached the semifinals of all four Grand Slam events and surpassed 100 career titles. Djokovic is due to make his 2026 debut at the Adelaide International ahead of this month’s Australian Open.
We’ll continue to monitor this developing story.
