Taylor Fritz said that if a men's player on the ATP Tour came out as gay, he would be welcomed by his peers, the top-ranked American told tennis publication Clay.
While leading players past and present on the WTA Tour have come out as gay, no male player competing at the sport's top level has done the same so far.
"Myself and my friends, other players on tour wouldn't have any issues with it, it would be totally normal and I think people would be accepting." Another reason may be that those players do not want to risk being on the receiving end of abusive language or being alienated by their peers.
