Novak Djokovic has backed the stance of the WTA after they threatened to pull events from China if Peng Shuai's safety is not confirmed/ her whereabouts provided.
Djokovic is one of the main profile names to back WTA's boycott against China with more and more names likely to join the World Number One.
“I support the statement of WTA as an organisation and also their president absolutely,” Djokovic said on Friday.
“The whole community, tennis community, needs to back her up and her family, make sure that she's safe and sound because if you would have tournaments on the Chinese soil without resolving this situation, it would be a little bit strange. I do understand why WTA has taken a stance like that.”

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
