I watched the flocast videos. Hall made $21,000 for winning (12k for the win, $4k for the course record and 5k for the AR). Did he also have an appearance fee?
Subtract from that his expenses for traveling to Houston, same for his coach, wife and parents (five plane tickets, three hotel rooms for, I'm guess, three nights) and he has expanses around 4k to 5k.
So he netted 15k. But ....
Had he finished second, he would have barely covered his costs. He has to pay his coach.
I'm sure he has a sponsirship contract.
What I'm asking is how much a year to you think Hall makes a year?
