The UTS prize money system is not a winner-takes-all system. Instead, it will follow a 70:30 ratio where the match winner will receive 70 percent of the showdown prize pool, while the loser still receives 30 percent of that pool.
This win-win formula will help lower-ranked players generate a sustainable income playing tennis. Although the financial stakes remain high and the motivation to win is omnipresent, it will lift some stress off players ranked outside the Top 100.
