Top tennis players announced the end of the public phase of their campaign against Grand Slam organizers on September 14, 2026. The decision follows the establishment of a Grand Slam Player Advisory Council to negotiate player welfare and revenue sharing. Prominent players, including Aryna Sabalenka and Jessica Pegula, participated in protests earlier this summer. Players could still initiate public protests if the council fails to meet their demands. Discussions on revenue sharing and additional support for players are ongoing, with the aim for a 22% revenue share by 2030.
