Wimbledon has announced the biggest prize money increase in the history of the Championships, but the rise may not appease the top tennis players in dispute with the grand slam tournaments.The All England Club revealed a prize money purse of £64.2m, a 20% increase from last year and a £10.7m rise. The increase represents, according to the players, roughly 15% of the revenue generated by the Championships.This figure is unlikely to appease the player group, which had pushed for a 16% revenue share in meetings with the All England Club during the French Open, which would have translated to slightly…

I felt like I had an outside chance,” he said.”Then Paris was the one that I was really pushing for and was pretty disappointed then that I didn’t make it.”In terms of keeping going, I’d say, love…
