Do you think tennis players are underpaid?

Top players have threatened to boycott Grand Slams over prize money concerns…

kelliewood113mo ago

Definitely not the top ones but maybe the guys trying to break into top 100 or lower tier players

suegibson48484mo ago

Certainly not - indeed top players are excessively overpaid !! Lesser players are possibly underpaid .

suegibson48484mo ago

Obviously mo way!! Top players are worth millions plus incredible sums for endorsements Lower rank players are not necessarily well.paid Total geared to be asking for more money 💰

This thing makes sense. If you are player number 300 in the world, after travel, training, equipment, food and lodging you should still be comfortable enough to make it worth fighting to win. I'm sure the players on the bench in team sports aren't crying too much over money

30 percent pay hike for Round of 16 / 32 /64 /128 and qualies

Not the biggest names, but they clearly aren't happy!

Not if your in the top 20, otherwise yes. To get a foothold in tennis is a very expensive sport. I think there should be a more equitable distribution of the Prize money. Also the fans are getting priced out of many tournaments. There needs to be a balance.

Not the top players - But from 200/250 to 1,000 in the world, yes
