PRAGUE, Czech Republic (AP) -Czech wild card Karolina Pliskova rallied to beat eighth-seeded Kaia Kanepi of Estonia 1-6, 6-3, 7-5 Wednesday and advance to the quarterfinals of the Prague Open.

Wimbledon winners to get $1.49 million each

WIMBLEDON, England (AP) -The Wimbledon champions will each receive $1.49 million this year, an increase of 5.8 percent.

The All England Club said Tuesday the total prize money for the championships will increase 3.4 percent to $23.46 million.

Last year marked the first time women earned equal prize money at the grass-court Grand Slam.

The weak dollar and fluctuating exchange rates means Wimbledon winners will earn less than the French Open champions, who will get $1.56 million at the clay-court tournament in June. The U.S. Open usually pays the highest prize money of the four majors.
