In today’s world, few actions speak louder than turning down a major paycheck to stay true to your values. And that’s exactly what Caroline Garcia just did. By refusing a six-figure sponsorship offer from a betting company, she delivered a powerful message about integrity, responsibility, and the future she wants to shape for tennis.

On social media today, Garcia revealed that she and her team turned down a $270,000 sponsorship offer from a betting company for their podcast, Tennis Insider Club. It is a huge amount for an independent show and for Garcia, who only recently stepped away from professional tennis.
