Winston Wins Ninth Circuit Reversal and Class Certification in Swimmers’ Antitrust Case, Securing a Global-Impact Settlement with World Aquatics

Winston represents a class of professional swimmers alleging World Aquatics (WA) violated antitrust laws by blocking their participation in the competing International Swimming League. After WA won summary judgment, Winston successfully appealed, arguing the court applied improper antitrust standards and wrongly denied certification of a damages class. In September 2024, the Ninth Circuit reversed both rulings, reviving all claims and issuing a landmark ruling on the possible application of the per se rule or quick look review to sports-associations rules. Am Law awarded Winston “Litigator of the Week” Runner-Up recognition for the win. In November 2024, the Ninth Circuit denied rehearing. In April 2025, the district court certified a damages class....Read more

Winston Serves as Lead Counsel to GCP Capital Partners in New Continuation Vehicle

Winston & Strawn served as legal counsel to GCP Capital Partners (GCP) in connection with the formation and closing of a single-asset continuation vehicle involving ALKEME Insurance. Led by the PE and Funds Group practices, the team advised GCP throughout the transaction which included substantial newly committed capital to fund portfolio company ALKEME’s continued growth (the single asset). The fund raise was backed by a syndicate of institutional investors where Apollo S3 served as the lead investor. The deal signals a growing trend: the strategic use of continuation vehicles to extend sponsors’ ownership in high-performing portfolio companies. This deal also reflects a broader narrative in middle-market private equity: firms that started small are now scaling rapidly, and they’re turning to sophisticated liquidity solutions to fuel that growth....Read more
