WTF? Someone just mentioned that whoever wins gets 1 million dollars. Is that true?
Hell, that's a freaken grandslam prize money for 2 matches of exhibition. Can someone please confirm if that's true. If it is, I change my mind about this. I don't care how tired you are Venus, get your ass out there and get em' :lol:

 

[Pureracket]

LOL! I thought it was common knowledge that they were playing for @ least that much.

Keep up, Tennisn'tion.

It's not even 2 full matches anyway, the ad said it was for $1.2 or something.

common sense would be that the prize money is much less due to the struggling economy

 

[Brooklyn90]

I thought it all went to charity???

Lets hope so. Maybe the winner will be able to donate the 1Mill to the charity of her choice :bounce:.

since when did the price money in tennis become less??

It isn't, but I think the whole exhibition is dependent on ticket sales and advertisement. I'm not sure if women's tennis has enough power to pull in the kind of interest and electricity that Federer & Sampras did at the same venue.

"On Monday, March 2, four of the best women's tennis players in the world will face off in a one-night single elimination event at Madison Square Garden for $1.2 million in prize money."

It's $1.2M split between all of them- with probably some deductions anyway.

Well, I know where Venus or Serena's would go.. their own charities! lol

 

[In The Zone]

Hopefully the prize money is just being used as an incentive for the ladies to actually play real tennis and not exho tennis. We'll see, I guess.

 

[raffles]

Well how much does BJK get then?

Give it to Jelena so she can buy herself a serve, please.
