She has a nice check every year at each slam.
She plays the main draws, losing in R1 for a hefty $45,000 each time. Not bad.
Some girls don't get to any slam main draw each year. But they scrap the bottom of their pockets and still do get to tournaments.
I don't buy Taylor's excuses.

You are being too hard on her. This year she has made about 600,000 and half of that is from the USO. Now, for a player who has no endorsements, if you say on average she makes $350,000 annually (I am ignoring USO, it was an outlier, we might not see it any time soon :wink: ), so say her team pockets 40%, that leaves her with say 220,000. (How do taxes work for these guys?, ) anyway before any taxes, she probably rents or pays mortgage, now start subtracting her tickets.. Nothing is left dude.
Why don't you invest in her and make sure she travels? :)

nooo.. There are girls on the tour who make nothing close to that.
How much does Brengle earn a year? How about your beloved Sashia Vickery? Asia Muhammad? Yet they are always entering tournament all around the globe every year. How do they do it?
How do girls like Nicole Gibbs, Kuzmova, Broady, Mandy Minella, ... manage to travel?
Taylor makes enough money to stay in Europe and play tournaments between French Open and Wimbledon ..... to go to Europe after Charleston to play a few events before the French Open.... to play the US Open Series in San Diego... to play Toronto or DC, etc ....

But if she wants the bitcoins you've been sending me, no problem. I can transfer that into her account. I'll help.

I wasn't trying to quell your convo. I was agreeing with you.
If girls from small eastern european or asian countries can make it work, she has no excuse.
Therefore, she probably just doesn't want to play that much. :oops:
