Net profit from tennis - Telegraph If Roger Federer had received his Wimbledon prize money in pound coins and begun counting them at one a second, he would finish in the early hours of Sunday week. If Andy Murray had collected his more modest prize in pound coins it would have weighed over five tons - more than a match for even the vast tennis bags that professionals habitually heave on and off court. And if Oxfam is £101,840 the richer from the Federer victory, it should bless its luck. For the worthy charity had been bequeathed a wager by a man calling himself Nicky Newlife, who in 2003 bet £1,520 at 66-1 that Federer would win seven Wimbledon titles by 2019. Mr Newlife went on to a new life in 2009, and last year Oxfam must have had an anxious moment as Federer went out to Tsonga in the quarter-finals. Now the bookmaker has paid up and Oxfam will, if it wishes, be able to buy a goat for 4,073 needy families.
