London: In the wake of Novak Djokovic's attack against tennis' anti-doping program, Roger Federer defended the system and asked for more doping tests on Thursday.

Djokovic lashed out at the World Anti-Doping Agency and at tennis authorities this week, saying the decision in Victor Troicki's doping case proved the fight against doping is badly organized.

Troicki had an 18-month ban reduced on appeal to 12 months for skipping a blood test in April. The Court of Arbitration for Sport empathized with Troicki but had to uphold a ban.

Asked about the case, Federer said he has faith in the system but the testing program should be reinforced because he feels "like we're not getting maybe tested enough."

What's your reaction?
