By adding your name to this list you are showing support for a change in the current prize payout structure for WTC events. Primarily a request to move away from the extremely top heavy pay structure and into a more even drop from 1st to 10th place. This is not to try and change the total purse as was recently announced by WTC, it is to request a change in the way those purses are distributed across the top 10 for the new $150k, $100k, $75k, and $60k events.
We were not able to post spreadsheets on this petition, here is a quick summary of the proposed structures and a recent vote that was taken:

Totally agree. The sport is growing but the pay isnt showing it.
Finally someone is speaking up about this. It is impossible to make a living when only the top 3 walk away with anything worth while. Please fix this.
About time. 1st place doesnt need the huge payout when 4th-10th are working just as hard for nothing.
The current model is so incredibly dated. We need to support the whole field not just the podium finishers.
Top heavy pay is killing the sport. Too many pros are struggling to cover travel costs for these races.

RIDICULOUS payout structure right now. Spread it out so we can actually sustain a career doing this.
