A lot is being made of this.

And we keep asking the same question: what can the WTA do? Do they have the leverage to impose equal prize money at joint events that are not Slams?

If you win the WTA 250 in Prague your take home is about $20k.

Meanwhile at the ATP 250 in Los Cabos $852,480 is the pool of money available with a total financial commitment of $946,975.

I know. We are not in disagreement about fairness or not. I am wondering what can the WTA do to increase prize money.
I live by that. There were several projects in which I was getting paid less than an identical counterpart simply because "he is from L. America and the cost of living is less there".
And I could bitch and moan as much as I wanted, but that was what was offered to me. Fair? Hell no. Anything I could do? Nothing. So I got on my plane and did not think about it.

Time for the prediction.. I would say Medvedev and Bencic this year... for the win.

#51

Medvedev? Yes, should be his. Bencic? I say mid ranked player, not Bencic. It is a very even tournament.

Wow it's hard to believe you could both be this wrong before the tournament even starts.

Daniil Medvedev won't play at the 2023 Citi Open in Washington next week as the Russian withdrew from the ATP 500 event.

If you find it hard to believe that I COULD BE WRONG, you have not been paying attention for like the last... ten years?
