Just read on tabletennisengland.co.uk that the winner of the forthcoming National Championships will pocket 1000 pound and the runner-up 500. This is an increase of 25% due to a new sponsor.

Personally I think it's still derisory and a real embarrassment for the top players. What about the National Championships in your country? Do they get paid more of less? Be interested to know. Thanks.

that's... how to say... not a mind blowing amount :D

In my old club, for winning a club members only internal tournament which is organized once in a quarter or so, you get a 3 or a 6 months membership which is worth up to 300-600 eur and some pot money the players pitch in... and that's as far from a national championship as it gets...
