not much considering the amount of practice they do (6 hours a day) prize money for world champs is only about 20,000 euro

Actually, tennis players around the rank 100 make about 300k a year of prize money. But that total increases a lot when you take in cosideration the money they earn by the sponsors etc. So tennis pros make a lot of money
Money. Fame.
Prior to the 1970's, tennis players did not win large amounts of money, as they do, today. The "honor" of winning a trophy, along with the fame and glory that accompanied it, was deemed far more important. Since sponsorships were very rare in those days, most tennis players were well-to-do, and could afford to travel the world to play the sport with their own resources. Today, professional tennis players do not have a fixed salary. They make money from endorsements, sponsorships, and prize money. Tennis players can make a few hundred or thousand dollars winning matches in low-level and satellite tournaments, and hundreds of thousand dollars by winning major championships, such as those of the Grand Slam events.
Professional tennis players' earnings records prior to the 1970's are very limited. Also, players did not earn the same amount of money, due to "backroom deals", appearance fees, etc. As such, there is no way to give a set answer.
If you lose in the first round you get £23500 (as of 2013)
Technicoly but they don't have to be very good players to earn lots of money. it kinda isn't fair.
