Exhibition matches aren't much like real matches. Players don't take them very seriously. When there's money and ranking points on the line, it's a different deal completely.

I agree it wasn't like a real match.

But there was money on the line, $250, 000 to the champ.

To put it in comparison, she'd have to make at least the SF of Indian Wells to surpass that amount.

Indian Wells: Singles champions to earn over $1 million in prize money

There weren't ranking points because it's not a WTA event.

But it was sponsored by tennis.com, Rolex, Wilson, Estrella, Wilson, etc.

Given her net worth of $150Mill, hat's like me, a teacher making 60K per year, getting about a $100 bonus for teaching a weekend class.

For Serena, it's a glorified practice session, nothing more.

Even a huge paycheck at a major isn't her impetus for continuing to play.

Interesting. Are you sick and tired of Federer ? He is also worshiped over there. Or you are just sick ad tired of the black woman?

He's sick and tired of Murray and Nadal, and Djokovic, all who get covered extensively. So there's a lot of players he thinks get too much attention.

Keys is out

Fritz to the 3rd round

Serena vs Venus on Monday

 

[bksballer89]

Tons of upsets today

Serena vs Venus on Monday

That, and Berdych vs. Chung look like good matches on Monday night.

 

[nuraman00]

Federer has played doubles 11 times at Indians Wells.

He did not play this year.

 

[nuraman00]

Sock/Isner are through to the R16 round in doubles.

Coric made quick work of Bautista Agut. 1 & 3

Wow.

 

[nuraman00]

Serena made a lot of errors, but also looked good a lot of times too.

Venus looked good but then would have terrible serving games when up a break in the 2nd set.

Just saw Fritz is through to the 4th round. Nice win
