World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz and world No. 2 Jannik Sinner have received large rewards for participating in the ATP-500 tournament in Doha.
According to Idman.Biz, citing La Gazzetta dello Sport, both tennis players earned approximately $1.2 million for their arrival and participation in the competition. Even the winner of the tournament will receive considerably less - $529,945 in prize money.
According to the source, the tournament owners are trying to increase interest in the competition and eventually designate it as a "Masters" tournament.
