https://reurl.cc/K2VEEn With Wimbledon’s main draw starting Monday, a War-of-the-Roses-type power strug gle has erupted within the Professional Tennis Players Association, with one gro up of players and officials suing another group and other executives. 随着温布顿网球锦标赛会内赛将於周一开打，职业网球员协会（PTPA）内部爆发了一场宛如 「玫瑰战争」般的权力斗争，一派球员与高层对另一派球员及多位主管提起诉讼，使组织陷 入严重内斗 The core allegations include that Winners Alliance, the principal funder of the PTPA since 2023, has milked the players’ group and failed in its economic promi ses. Meanwhile, what the plaintiffs allege is that an illegal board led by forme r executive director Ahmad Nassar has taken control of the group illicitly and o usted employees who were investigating his conduct. Nassar is also charged with violating his fiduciary duty to PTPA because of his executive role with Winners Alliance, while PTPA co-founder Vasek Pospisil is charged with taking payments f rom Winners Alliance that clouded his role with the players group. 诉讼的核心指控包括：自2023年起一直是PTPA主要金主的Winners Alliance，长期利用球员 组织牟利，却未履行当初承诺的财务与商业发展计画 此外原告主张，由前执行董事Ahmad Nassar领导的一个「非法董事会」，透过不合法手段夺 取了PTPA的控制权，并将调查其行为的员工赶出组织 Nassar也被控因同时担任Winners Alliance高阶主管，违反了他对PTPA所负有的受托义务， 另一方面，PTPA共同创办人Vasek Pospisil则被指控收受Winners Alliance的款项，使其在 代表球员组织时的立场产生利益冲突 The listed plaintiffs in the lawsuit are the PTPA, Saisai Zheng, and Marco Trung elliti. The defendants are Nassar, Pospisil, Bethanie Mattek-Sands, Hubert Hurka cz, Ons Jabeur, Winners Alliance, and Romain Rosenberg. Depending on which side you are speaking with, Rosenberg is either the current executive director (argue d by the defendants) or the former executive director who was fired for verbal a buse of a PTPA employee. 本案列名原告包括PTPA、郑赛赛以及Marco Trungelliti 被告则包括Ahmad Nassar、Vasek Pospisil、Bethanie Mattek-Sands、Hubert Hurkacz、O ns Jabeur、Winners Alliance，以及 Romain Rosenberg 至於Rosenberg的身分，双方各执一词：被告主张他仍是PTPA现任执行董事；原告则表示， 他其实已因对一名PTPA员工言语辱骂而遭到解职 Winners Alliance, which is backed in part by financier Bill Ackman, agreed to fu nd the PTPA at a minimum of $3 million a year, but promises of a group licensing program that would far exceed that figure never materialized. 获知名投资人Bill Ackman部分资助的Winners Alliance，原本承诺每年至少向PTPA提供300 万美元资金，并表示将推动一项团体授权计画，预期能创造远高於这笔金额的收益 然而这项承诺中的授权计画始终没有真正落实 “Rather than maximize the PTPA Rights, Winners Alliance diverted its capital an d attention elsewhere—deploying, upon information and belief, more than $25 mil lion into an unrelated track-and-field venture, and pursuing rights in cricket a nd international basketball—while the Association’s rights languished,” accor ding to the lawsuit. The track and field venture is Grand Slam Track, which is c urrently in Chapter 11. 诉状指出： 「Winners Alliance并未致力於最大化PTPA所拥有的商业权利，反而把资金与资源转移到其 他地方——据了解投入超过2,500万美元至一项与PTPA无关的田径事业，同时积极开发板球 与国际篮球的商业权利，而PTPA自身的权利却被长期搁置」 文中提到的田径事业，就是目前已申请《美国破产法》第11章（Chapter 11）破产重整的Gr and Slam Track On June 3, according to the lawsuit, what is described as the “lawful” executi ve committee that included Zheng, Trungelliti, Taylor Townsend, and Arina Rodion ova, voted to sack Rosenberg over allegations of verbal abuse toward PTPA employ ee Anastasia Skavronskaia. And the committee authorized general counsel Wajid Mi r to investigate Nassar. The next day, what the lawsuit terms the “Fake” commi ttee, constituted by the defendants, met and ignored the other committee, and cu t off funds to the plaintiffs and took control of the organization. 根据诉状，6月3日由郑赛赛、Marco Trungelliti、Taylor Townsend及Arina Rodionova组 成、原告称为「合法」的执行委员会，投票决议解除Rosenberg的职务，理由是他涉嫌对PTP A员工Anastasia Skavronskaia 进行言语辱骂 同时该委员会授权总法律顾问Wajid Mir对Ahmad Nassar展开调查 然而隔天，诉状所称由被告组成的「假执行委员会」自行召开会议，无视前述委员会的决议 ，不但切断了原告一方的资金来源，还接管了整个PTPA “A more transparent and naked attempt to shut down an incriminating probe—by a registered nonprofit nonetheless—and retaliate against any truthseekers would be hard to imagine,” according to the complaint. “And, in the coming weeks, in response to PTPA’s repeated attempts to have its access and agency restored, W inners Alliance, Defendant Nassar, the Fake Executive Committee, and their affil iates dealt from the bottom of the deck, threatening players, issuing completely meritless defamation threats, and issuing false public communications regarding the status of a registered, IRS-reporting nonprofit.” 诉状写道： 「很难想像还有比这更赤裸、更毫不掩饰的方式，去阻止一项可能揭露不法行为的调查—— 而且这还是一个依法登记的非营利组织——并对所有试图查明真相的人进行报复」 诉状接着表示： 「在接下来几周，当PTPA一再试图恢复自身的管理权限与运作能力时，Winners Alliance、 被告 Nassar、『假执行委员会』及其相关人士，采取了各种不正当手段，包括威胁球员、 提出毫无根据的诽谤恐吓，以及针对这个依法向美国国税局（IRS）申报的非营利组织发布 不实公开声明」 The lawsuit asks the court to restore the “lawful” committee, enjoining the de fendants from communicating that they operate the PTPA and forcing them to retur n control to Mir and the plaintiffs, and damages to reflect the money lost to Wi nners Alliance’s failure to market the PTPA. The complaint estimates that the f igure exceeds $45 million. 诉讼要求法院恢复原告所称的「合法」执行委员会的权力，禁止被告对外宣称自己代表或经 营PTPA，并命令其将组织控制权交还给Wajid Mir与原告一方 此外原告也要求赔偿因Winners Alliance未能成功推广PTPA商业权利而造成的经济损失，诉 状估计损害金额超过4,500万美元 “The PTPA terminated Mir on June 4, 2026, following serious misconduct,” a sou rce close to the defendants said. “He continues to misrepresent his status…[he ] has no authority to act, speak or negotiate for the PTPA in any respect.” Thi s source said the lawsuit was filed without PTPA authorization and disavows it. 一名接近被告阵营的人士表示： 「PTPA已於2026年6月4日，因 Wajid Mir涉及严重失职而将他解雇」 该人士并称： 「他至今仍持续谎称自己的身分……他没有任何权限代表PTPA采取行动、发言或进行任何谈 判」 这名消息人士还表示，这起诉讼并未获得PTPA正式授权提出，因此PTPA不承认这项诉讼 --
