Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz charging £120k each for private tennis session
Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz are charging nearly £120,000 for private tennis sessions in Las Vegas next month, it has been revealed. The pair are set to compete in the upcoming Netflix Slam, which will be hosted by MGM Resorts and broadcast exclusively live on the streaming service.
The event will see Nadal face Alcaraz in a one-off match at the Michelob ULTRA Arena at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. The add-on experiences offered by MGM Resorts have raised eyebrows due to the staggering fees involved, with fans being charged a fortune to play with the Spanish duo.
Private tennis sessions with Nadal or Alcaraz, which are already sold out on the resort’s official website, are priced at an eye-watering £118,054 each. Alternatively, a joint group session with the pair is available for £39,361 per person.
The duo’s prices are considerably higher than other players offering similar services as part of the Netflix Slam event. A group session with Taylor Fritz and Frances Tiafoe costs £19,680, while sessions with John Isner and Sam Querrey are priced at £1,574 per person.
