Roger Federer says Novak Djokovic, Nadal and he aren't chasing each other
Roger Federer said that there is no fight going on among Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and him over Chris Kermode being ousted as the ATP President The Swiss said: "We’ll see now. A lot of stuff has been decided already so we’ll see if this week it's going to happen or not. But we’re not chasing each other at this point. If it happens, it happens."
Djokovic did not want to give any further information about the topic: "I will not express my personal views on that. By sharing that information, I expose myself and I become liable to breach of confidentiality within the structure, so I'm not willing to risk that. We have the inaugural ATP Cup in 2020, we have the NextGen Finals - there are a lot of positives, without a doubt. But also there's a lot of things that are happening internally that need a lot of addressing.
Meanwhile, Croatian soccer star Luka Modric was named as the best sportsman in the world from the International Association of the sports press (AIPS). "I thank everyone who voted me. It's an amazing honor to receive such a special recognition, I really feel happy," the Real Madrid midfielder said. 359 sports journalists coming from 87 countries took part in it.
