The French Open is to offer players a share of the tournament’s revenue as prize money, the first grand slam to do so

Some recent updates to the prize money dispute:

The French Open has become the first grand slam tournament to offer players a share of the event’s revenue in a significant step forward in the row over prize money. Officials from Roland Garros made the offer to the players’ representative, Larry Scott, in talks at Wimbledon a fortnight ago in a move that will increase pressure on the US Open, which is due to announce its prize fund for this year’s tournament at the start of next month. While an agreement has yet to be reached, the French Open’s willingness to commit to a revenue-share model to determine prize money is a major development, and sets Roland Garros apart from the three other grand slam tournaments. The French Open appears to have taken a different approach, with the commitment to revenue sharing being accompanied by a willingness to contribute to player pensions and healthcare and give the players a greater say in the running of the tournament. The US Open is under particular pressure as it has had longer to reach an agreement with the players and the tournament next month coincides with the arrival of a new chief executive of the US Tennis Association, Craig Tiley.

#all the criticism of the press boycotts was so premature #we don't really know the inner workings of these organizations and what will move them

Lmao actually they do have a carlos animal plushie this year (and even for novak and roger!) but I’m afraid the meaning underlying them is a CN specific thing because of their nicknames in Chinese fans:

Roger: “The Cow” because of the cow he was gifted in a Swedish tournament.

Novak: “The Chicken”. When Novak was young, coming after to challenge Roger, our newspaper called him a “fried young chicken” (当红炸子鸡）which is a phrase to describe a rising star. So in China Novak always has the chicken as his nickname.

Carlos: “The Duckling”. Since Carlos was also a fried young chicken to challenge Novak in the early years but the chicken nickname was occupied, so he was automatically assigned to a fried young duckling to represent his rivalry with Novak lmao.

#lol I love that Jannik manifested his fursona early and didn't get assigned one
