"It all depends on how much you can spend": Sumit Nagal reveals steep cost of tennis expenses
ATPFriday, 27 October 2023 at 05:30
Indian tennis player Sumit Nagal has revealed that he is spending close to 200 thousand US dollars every year on tennis.
The 26-year-old became famous after his quote emerged in the recent past where he stated that he only had 900 euros left in his bank.
Nagal was recently quoted in a report where he went on to explain in detail the steep cost of playing tennis at the highest level.
“The thing with tennis is that it is a funny sport,” he said. “You can spend as much as you want. Firstly, you have to figure out what your budget is for a tennis coach. If you have got a little bit extra, then you get your fitness trainer involved.
“Then if you have a little bit extra, then you get a physio involved. If you have a little bit extra, people travel with doctors, I'm just giving an example, so it all depends on what type of budget you have.
“You can spend as much as you want because there are some coaches who are going to cost you, for example, €2,000 or €3,000 a week. And then, there are some coaches who are going to cost you €7,000 a week. So it all depends on how much you can spend.
“There are coaches charging over €10,000 a week who are coaching the top 20 players. Their coaches would charge them almost $300,000 to $400,000 a year on a contract.
“So it all depends on who you are, where you're living, and what is the budget you want to spend. I've been spending more than $120,230 – $180,348 dollars on a yearly basis.”
Nagal is currently ranked 170 in the ATP rankings and has never won a single ATP title in his career.
He has only played in the main draw of a Grand Slam twice and both times it was in the US Open, in 2019 and in 2020.
