Tennis antitrust lawsuit: why ATP and WTA dismissal bids failed

Original: Tennis antitrust lawsuit explained: Why ATP, WTA and Grand Slam dismissal attempts failed

A US antitrust lawsuit against tennis governing bodies — the ATP, WTA and the Grand Slam tournaments — has survived early dismissal attempts, according to a New York Times explainer. The case alleges the organisations unfairly restrict competition in professional tennis, and the failed motions mean the claims will move forward in court.

Why now: A court ruling rejecting the governing bodies' dismissal attempts keeps a major antitrust case alive, raising stakes for the sport's structure.
