With the news of Elon Musk removing all legacy checkmarks from Twitter for people to pay for Twitter Blue, these all went on Thursday and only two players from both the ATP and WTA Tours remain with blue ticks.
Those being
Novak Djokovic and
Daria Kasatkina as of last night with top names including
Rafael Nadal and
Roger Federer both losing theirs in particular despite having millions of followers.
Djokovic and Kasatkina only keep theirs due to paying for the Twitter Blue service which is a monthly subscription that can give anyone a blue tick but is visible to anyone whether or not they are paying for it.
It will be interesting to see how long players go without paying for the service though.
