Look, in this sport, you can bank $3,000,000 just off your service alone.
Let me repeat that in case it didn't sink in— just having a killer serve in tennis nets you $3,000,000.
If you're ranked outside the top 100 (which basically means you don't have a serve, a backhand, OR a forehand and you're just some semi-pro playing the Challenger circuit), you can always make a quick buck betting against yourself.
So much for the "struggling pro" life. ☕
Now, how many hits does LeBron James have to take to earn $3,000,000? Maybe 5-10 years playing in the Bundesliga?
Let's compare LeBron's imaginary $3,000,000 to Banderin's actual $3,000,000 and see who actually bled more to get there before you start lecturing us on how hard it is to make money in tennis.
