SYDNEY, Jan 2: Women tennis players will earn more prize money than their male counterparts at next week’s Sydney International tournament, competition’s organisers said on Friday.
Of the near $1.1 million up for grabs, the women will be vying for $600,000, while the men will be playing for $484,750.
Tournament director Craig Watson said the discrepancy was due to the category of the event on the respective ATP and WTA tours.—AFP
