Novak Djokovic has weighed in on the incident involving Vasek Pospisil at the Miami Open that occurred on Wednesday. The World No.1, who is a partner with Pospisil in the PTPA (Professional Tennis Players Association) took to Twitter to voice his appreciation, along with several other top pros today, such as Milos Raonic, Ivo Karlovic, John Isner, Steve Johnson and Rajeev Ram.
“Concerning matters at hand, I am not in Miami,” Djokovic wrote. “However Vasek Pospišil is my good friend and I empathize with him wholeheartedly. Players on tour would agree that he is an individual of the highest integrity who cares about the well being of his fellow competitors. I am hopeful players recognize the importance of standing together.

It isn’t clear what the PTPA has planned next, but based on the reaction on social media, the organization appears determined to gain more support amongst the players so that they can challenge ATP Tour management on issues such as player independence and compensation.
