Players filed multiple lawsuits Tuesday against the ATP, WTA and other professional bodies, alleging that "tennis is broken" due to unfair business practices.

The Professional Tennis Players Association and 22 players are accusing the two pro tours, the International Tennis Federation and the International Tennis Integrity Agency of anticompetitive business practices, monopolizing pro tennis and systemic abuse.
