Fed was the highest paid athlete in 2020, largely from endorsements:

I don't know if these figures include social media payments.

not bad for work from home. who needs actual tennis when you can do nine figures posing with coffee machines and CP's least favorite chocolate bonbons?

Naomi is doing even better in the endorsement arena than the tennis arena...

With Tommy Paul, JJ Wolf, and Sebastian Korda, the young Americans are starting to make some inroads...

Korda made the final in Delray Beach (lost to Hurkacz) and took a set from Shapo at the US Open last year. Only 20 years old, this kid is certainly one to watch going forward.

Am I reading that right that Bianca will play Leylah once she defeats Sloane Stephens?!? I see the ATP draw luck for Canadians has now morphed over to the WTA lol

Looking closer at the draw, Bianca and Kerber are on a QF collision course. Could we see some drama in a few days?!?

Nice, Milos with the break and serving for the opening set at 5-3

Edit: Easy peasy hold to love and Canada takes the opening set 6-3
