Yeah, M8, I didn't read that sentence close enough.

I'd think Justine in your tournament is easily worth 6 figures. Additional press, additional ticket sales, and you probably get one or two sponsors events that she puts in an appearance at - and there are fans that would love to meet her, I am sure. But I really can't imagine what Kirilenko brings to the table that's worth 6 figures.

That just might be the going rate for the top seed(s).

Plus, I bet a lot of money they rake in must come from private sponsors who'll also pay money for a meet'n'schmooze with the players. I'm guessing lots of rich middle-aged men will want to meet Maria
