PARIS - WTA founder Billie Jean King and Rafael Nadal led a wave of support on Thursday for Roger Federer's suggestion that"now is the time" to merge the men's and women's governing bodies, while tennis is at a standstill because of the coronavirus pandemic.
"Just wondering... am I the only one thinking that now is the time for men's and women's tennis to be united and come together as one?" Federer posed to his 12.7 million Twitter followers. Nadal, who has 19 Grand Slam titles, posted:"I completely agree that it would be great to get out of this world crisis with the union of men's and women's tennis in one only organisation."
World No. 2 and reigning Wimbledon champion Halep agreed, tweeting that Federer was"not the only one" thinking along those lines, while Muguruza added,"Yes, would be a good idea". "It was not just a comment like that, there is more talk behind that. Gaudenzi at the ATP was already talking about it," he said during an Instagram Live with 18-time Grand Slam champion Chris Evert.
