Does anyone know what the prize money for winning the MS in the WC ? or the breakdown of the prize money, .i.e. 2nd, 3rd ? and WS, MD, WD, etc, etc.

Cheers.

^ You are having a laugh..... no prize money for winning the WC ?! no prize money on offer ? something is wrong there. I think I need some more opinions..... or facts. I can't beleive there's no prize money for the WC. That's just unbelievable. The Olympics I can understand but not the WC.

Monkey: there is no prize money for winning the WC. That is fact.

S4MadMan and cheongsa are correct. There's never been any prize money in the WCs since its inception in 1977.

^ Well, at least I know now.

Cheers guys (and girls).

I guess they play more for the title then the money in the WC.
