US Open Purse

jon jon Asked 13 years ago

Why do you think the US Open has such a small purse?  Compared to regular tennis it's a joke.  The US Open should be getting the worlds top players but doesn't.  Why do you think that is?

Hi Jon,

I am not sure.  It is an interesting question though.

I think that money attracts the players and it is hard to attract the money without the players.

I think that there is a lot of work to be done by the whole Table Tennis world to attract money into the sport.  We need to promote our sport better.  This is a job for everyone from the players to the general public to the administrators of the sport.
