There will be no ATP-WTA union in the short term: negotiations are deadlocked

Carlos Navarro - 23 Dec 2025

For the time being, ATP and WTA will not join forces soon.

There will be no ATP-WTA commercial merger in the short term. What seemed like a practically done deal just months ago has turned into, for now, a possibility to continue exploring in 2026. In conversations with Front Office Sports, an ATP representative confirmed that the potential agreement has stalled due to profit-sharing differences, along with other details that seem far from being resolved. For now, ATP and WTA will continue to operate as two completely independent entities... until further updates arise.

EXCLUSIVE: The proposed ATP and WTA commercial merger won't be finished in 2025.

The tours tell FOS that talks on a “potential joint commercial venture” will continue into 2026, with some insiders skeptical it will happen soon.
