Federer called for the union of men's and women's tennis

Nick Kiryos intervened decisively and broke the romance around the interesting, but it also seemed like Roger Federer’s proposal to unite the associations of men and women in tennis.

On Wednesday, the Master, apparently finding enough time for this kind of reflection during his isolation, wrote in a tweet:

“Am I the only one who thinks that now is the time for ATP and WTA to join forces and become one …”

The first reactions were completely positive: from female stars like Simona Halep and Garbin Mugurusa, as well as from one of the first great rebel figures in tennis: Billy Jean King.

“This is my vision for tennis in the 70s” the American wrote on social media in response.

Aces on men also commented positively on what Federer wrote.

“I thought about it, I totally agree with Roger. It would be great to come out of this crisis as one organization.” Rafa Nadal also supported the idea.

Of course, there is already a first opponent. It is not difficult to remember who …

“Yes!” Nick Kyrios answered clearly under a Twitter post by Federer asking “Am I the only one who thinks …”

The Australian rebels that no one asks the players before making such an offer, if they are alone on social media.

“What’s the use of that?” He asks in another post.

At the same time, ATP President Andrea Gaudentsi acknowledged that the issue was not new and had already been discussed at a meeting of the organization’s management.
