Forty million players attempted to qualify over 10 weeks of online competition but only 100 finalists have a shot at winning the $3m (2.4m) prize at Flushing Meadows. All finalists will take home at least $50,000 and the runner-up, as well as third and fourth-placed finishers, will all become millionaires.

TI9 has already topped the 28M pool and were still like 2 months away for it to get bigger. Dude should be fired for this article. Edit: pool is actually 30 million. I retract my statement. 3 million for first prize in a 30 million pool is pretty bad though imo. --- Typical gameFAQers are "Complainers that always complain about those who complain about real legitimate complaints."-Joker_X <cite>Zeeak4444 posted [p:925202195] in Fortnite W...
