III. FINANCIAL Decision: III. FINANCIAL 1.  The lucky loser who was drawn as the number 1 LL is eligible to  receive first round prize money or whatever money he earns in the  main draw. He does not keep the final round qualifying money. 2.  The lucky loser who was drawn as number 2 LL receives final  round qualifying money plus money earned in main draw, less the  amount paid to the withdrawing player. 3.  The same principle applies if there were more than two withdraw - ing players prior to the completion of the qualifying or the qualifiers  being placed in the draw. Case:  A seeded main draw player with a Bye withdraws on-site after  the Qualifying started, the main draw has been made and the player  is eligible to collect 2nd round prize money compensation. The order  of play for the first day has not been released and the next seeded  player who did not receive a Bye moves into that position. How is  the prize money distributed? Decision:  The seeded player moving to the bye position will receive  first round prize money if he loses and first round prize money plus  the difference between 2nd round and the round reached if he wins.  The LL inserted in the draw receives final round qualifying money  plus prize money earned in main draw less the 1st round prize  money.  Case:  Same situation as above, however the order of play for the  first day has been released. Decision:  If a qualifier is drawn into the bye position he will receive  first round prize money if he loses and first round prize money plus  the difference between 2nd round and the round reached if he wins.  The lucky loser who was drawn into the 1st round position receives  final round qualifying money plus money earned in main draw,  less the 1st round money paid to the qualifier drawn into the bye  position.  Case:  Two main draw players withdraw overnight after the Quali - fying has finished. The Qualifiers were drawn into their respective  positions in the draw. The Order of Play for the first day of main  draw is released. One of the withdrawing players was seeded with  a bye. The LL’s are drawn into the vacant position in the draw. The  second LL is drawn to replace the seeded player with the bye. How  is the prize money decided if the withdrawing players have received  compensation? Decision:  The LL’s receive PM dependent on which player they  were drawn to replace in the draw. This is a different procedure than  the cases when the WD’s happen before the Q is finished and the  Q/LL’s inserted into the draw.  Doubles:  Should a doubles match in an ATP Tour or ATP Challenger Tour event  be uncontested* or fail to be completed, the losing team shall only receive points  and prize money from the previous round unless one of the following exceptions  is applicable: * A team withdrawing from the first round will not receive prize money whether  there is or is not an alternate/lucky loser team. The exceptions do not apply. 38 39 3.09 On-Site Prize Money Each ATP Tour and ATP Challenger Tour tournament is required to offer and pay as  part of its financial commitment the on-site prize money shown in “Exhibit J” plus  hotel accommodations, unless otherwise determined by ATP. The minimum prize  money for ATP Challenger Tour Tournaments is $35,000/€30,000.  (See Challenger  Addendum, page 407) 6)  A tournament must send to ATP any prize money not paid to a player who is de - faulted for improper conduct. 5) Players affected by the entries or seedings not in accordance with ATP Rules and  Regulations shall not be entitled to compensation. Such entry or seeding varianc - es shall be resolved at the sole discretion of the Senior Vice President - Rules &  Competition. 4)  A player who receives a “bye” and loses in the second round shall receive second  round loser’s prize money. f) (See ATP Addendum, page 374) (See Challenger Addendum, page 396) *** For ATP Challenger events the withdrawal for doubles must be after the with - drawal deadline. ** Example: Player A is not in the singles draw and his doubles ranking is 20;  his partner, Player B, is in the singles draw with a ranking of 15. Player B’s  doubles ranking is 30. The cutoff for their method of entry is 60. Using player  B’s doubles ranking would have kept them as a direct acceptance so they  qualify for exception b) above. e)  The retiring/withdrawing player had withdrawn/retired from his singles match,  which was scheduled the same day; or, if the doubles match is scheduled  for a following day the player is examined by the tournament Doctor and is  declared unfit for competition in the doubles event. ii) For ATP Challenger events is forced to withdraw from the following week’s  event (singles or doubles***).  i) For ATP Tour events is forced to withdraw from the next event in which he  is entered (singles or doubles). d)  The retiring/withdrawing player was not involved in the singles draw of that  event and: ii) For ATP Challenger events if the retiring/withdrawing player was not in  the singles draw of that event and is forced to withdraw from the following  week’s event (single or doubles) after the withdrawal deadline. i) For ATP Tour events if the retiring/withdrawing player was not in the sin - gles draw of that event and is forced to withdraw from the next event in  which he is accepted in the main draw (singles or doubles). c)  The retiring/withdrawing player is still in the singles competition and at the  time of the medical examination is declared unfit to play in the singles of  that event or, if no longer involved in the singles competition of that event, is  forced to withdraw from the singles or doubles*** of the next tournament in  which he is entered. b) Both players used, or could have used**, their doubles ranking for entry into  the doubles draw (does not apply to wild card teams). a) Neither player was in the singles main draw;
