Djokovic ‘union’ starts legal moves
The Herald
|March 19, 2025
THE player organisation set up by Tennis great Novak Djokovic has launched legal action against tennis’ governing bodies.
Founded by Djokovic and Canada’s Vasek Pospisil in 2021, the Professional Tennis Players Association cites its mission as supporting and safeguarding professional tennis players.
But it has found driving change from outside the system very difficult and is now taking a legal route against the ATP, WTA, International Tennis Federation and International Tennis Integrity Agency, which oversees the sport's anti-doping and anti-corruption system.
Twelve current and former players, including Djokovic, Pospisil and Nick Kyrgios, are listed as plaintiffs along with the PTPA.
A statement read: “Following years of good-faith efforts to reform professional tennis, the Professional Tennis Players Association (PTPA) has taken decisive legal action.
