The top stars are definitely paid very well. I believe I read somewhere that the appearance fee for a major star is around $250,000-$300,000 but people like Sharapova can get even more.

Starlets like Caroline Wozniacki would get much less, but it's still worthwhile for her. Hong Kong is in the about same time zone as Australia. It's a legitimate warm up event considering the presence of so many stars.
