The French Open is expected to pay just 15 per cent to players this year. The other Slams operate similar models.“I feel like without us there wouldn’t be a tournament and there wouldn’t be that entertainment. I feel like definitely we deserve to be paid more percentage,” Sabalenka added. “I just really hope that all of the negotiation that we are having, we at some point are going to get to the right decision, to the conclusion that everyone will be happy with.”\n\nIn addition to bigger prize pots, the players have asked for welfare contributions, including pension and long-term health, and a greater say in decision-making at the Grand Slams.The campaign is separate to one launched by the Novak Djokovic co-founded Professional Tennis Players Association for more power at tour level. Djokovic has since stepped down from the PTPA.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"-1","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"}}}
