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.”
