Revenus et Superstars dans les sports individuels. Le cas du tennis et du golf masculins

Antoine Feuillet, Nicolas Scelles and Christophe Durand

Revue française de gestion, 2018, vol. N° 276, issue 7, 45-60

Abstract: The winner-take-all and Superstars theories are complementary here within an approach which favours the concentration of revenues by dominant actors. The cases studied men?s tennis and golf, highlight that tennis players? revenues are less balanced. This imbalance is not explained by the prize distribution structure in the tournaments of both sports but by the turnover lower in tennis than in golf. It establishes the existence of a specific labour market in tennis characterised by a concentration of revenues by a few players, including over time.
