ATP has ended its 12-year partnership with FedEx. Pepperstone, a financial broker, will replace FedEx and become ATP’s platinum partner, the second highest partnership category.

In a statement, FedEx confirmed that the deal with ATP was terminated at the end of 2021 saying:

FedEx regularly reviews our sport sponsorships to be fully aligned with our overall corporate strategy. We continuously explore sponsorship opportunities to support our commercial and community strategy.

Recently, Fedex was the title sponsor of the ATP rankings. With the new partnership, the live rankings will be called the Pepperstone ATP Live Rankings. Pepperstone will have an on-site presence at 11 ATP events during the year, including the Nitto ATP Finals in Turin.

Emirates continues to be ATP’s sole premier sponsor, the highest level of sponsorship. Nitto and Infosys are gold sponsors, the third highest sponsorship category.

Pepperstone was founded in 2010 by Owen Kerr and Joe Davenport. The company offers brokerage services in forex, index, commodities, CFD, and cryptocurrencies.

Andy Murray has confirmed what we know all along. He is a robot with no emotions. When he was asked about Boris Becker’s jail sentence, Murray said:

I didn’t really feel particularly emotional about it. He broke the law and if you do that, I don’t think you should get special treatment because of who you are or what you’ve achieved. Again, I feel sorry that he’s in that situation, but I also feel sorry for the people that he’s affected with his decisions as well and what’s happened to them. I hope he’s okay and that he learns from his mistakes. But I didn’t have a particular emotion about it.

Boris Becker won six grand slam titles in his career. He coached Novak Djokovic between 2014 and 2016. But his personal life had many ups and downs. He was sent to jail last week for hiding assets related to his 2017 bankruptcy.
