Nick Kyrgios has reignited the controversy on income sharing on the earth of tennis. A really delicate matter that at all times generates in-depth discussions.

Novak Djokovic, after the match received towards Gael Monfils on the Brisbane Worldwide, was questioned on the topic and expressed his standpoint by growing a really lengthy speech.

The Serbian champion defined that tennis is a worldwide sport and that gamers nonetheless must cope with completely different guidelines and tax programs. The query then shifted to how every event manages the prize cash to be made out there. Solely a small half, particularly if you concentrate on different sports activities, of the entire income is destined to the protagonists of the Tour.

“It’s a fact. It’s not my opinion. And what Nick says is true. In the most famous American sports – NBA, NHL, NFL – the institutions take 50% of the cake, sometimes a little more, sometimes less. In our sport the percentages are much lower. Let me explain. Ours is a different sport, it’s international and we play it all over the world. We are subject to different rules and laws of different countries that have their own rules and taxation systems.

It’s a very fragmented reality and it’s not easy to try to put everyone in the same room and say let’s agree on a certain percentage. Also because the revenue of an ATP250 is very different from that of a Slam.

The problem in the ATP structure is that as players we only have 50% of the organization and there have been a lot of conflicts of interest between players and tournaments in the past years,” Nole analyzed together with his regular honesty.

Djokovic’s PTPA goals to alter issues to provide tennis gamers a central position in these kind of choices.

“We would like one thing completely different. We’re all a part of the identical system and we won’t do with out one another, but we frequently discover ourselves in battle with one another. We would like extra money, they usually in all probability do not need to give it to us once we talk about prize cash with them, which hides loads of different particulars and isn’t straightforward to resolve. Finally, what Nick stated is true: in the event you have a look at the proportion that gamers get from the general income of the game, it’s a lot decrease than most different world sports activities, particularly American
