What are your superstitions in playing tennis?
Tennis player take a look at the figures for the top money earners in the WTA (women's professional league) as of Oct. 8,2006. Serena Williams is being paid $7.5 million a year by Nike for 8 years (she was signed in 2003 for 8 years this contracts total value is $60 million)#1J.Henin-Hardine $3,204,810 #2 Maria Sharapova $3,101,616,#3 Amelie Mauresmo $2,777,507 #4 Svetlana Kuznetsava $1,768,109 #5 Kim Clijisters $1,122,992.
Put in a another way V.Ruano Pascual earned $403,991 and no professional soccer player in the new league will ever come close to earning that much. Reason endorsements,advertisers, and TV/ticket sale tennis revenue will always be higher. Look the 1999 Women's World Cup had over 90,000 fans solid ratings for the final match and solid TV ratings ,but the WUSA was barley a blip on the sports landscape. Until Women's Soccer can build a bigger audience and have long term popularity this will never change.
Last year Amelie Mauresmo won $1.117 million dollars for winning Wimbledon this years winner gets paid an extra $53,000 extra.
