Megan Markle’s Sponsorship Request Denied by US Open Organization

In a surprising turn of events, the US Open organization board has refused Megan Markle's request to be paid for a sponsorship role.

This decision comes after Megan previously attended the US Open final in New York to support her friend Serena Williams.

However, her appearance alone raised eyebrows as she left her son Archie at home and seemed more interested in mingling with celebrities.

In an attempt to attend matches more frequently, Megan's team reached out to the US Open offering her services as a sponsor, with the expectation of financial compensation.

According to a source from Markle News 1, an email exchange between Megan's team and the US Open revealed discussions about monetary rewards.

Megan reportedly hoped for a six-figure payday for her support of the championship, which is a sum even former champions don't receive for participating in such events.

Confusion arose when Megan contacted the US Open once again, this time inquiring about participating in sponsorships.

It was unclear whether she wanted to be a sponsor herself or if she wanted to receive sponsorships from others.

The phrasing of her request puzzled the staff, leaving them unsure of her intentions.

Interestingly, Megan's team emphasized her connections and ability to bring notable individuals who share similar values and ideas to support her message of spreading positivity through tennis.

However, it is worth noting that the US Open already has official partners like Grey Goose, Levasseur, and Polo.

One can only imagine Megan recording a message with a product from these brands in a rather tacky video.

Adding to the irony, Megan seemed to aspire to make the US Open the American equivalent of Wimbledon in terms of celebrity engagement and prestige.

Effie, a fellow observer, and I agree that many people behind the scenes share this vision.

However, the US Open organization board had different plans.

They began inviting politicians and celebrities, offering them free tickets in exchange for their appearances.

Notable names like Bradley Cooper, Brad Pitt, the Schlochbergs, Caroline Kennedy, and her children were on the guest list last year.

Returning to Serena Williams' match, it ended in defeat as Canadian Bianca Andreescu emerged victorious.

Interestingly, this marked the third time Serena lost a match while Megan Markle watched from the stands.

Some fans took to Twitter to share a bizarre theory, blaming Megan for Serena's losses.

One fan suggested that Megan might be a jinx for Serena, while another jokingly referred to her as a great friend but a bad omen.

The superstitions surrounding Megan's appearances at Serena's matches were evident when a source close to Williams revealed that her coach had expressed concerns about Megan's presence.

It is worth mentioning that Serena had asked her coach about Megan attending her matches after winning the previous night.

Tennis players are known to be superstitious, and Megan's appearance at Wimbledon coincided with Serena's loss.

Since then, Megan has not been seen at any tennis matches.

In conclusion, Megan Markle's attempt to secure a paid sponsorship role with the US Open was met with refusal.

While she may have had aspirations of becoming the American version of Catherine, the organization's board had different plans.

Instead, they opted to invite politicians and celebrities, offering them free tickets in exchange for their appearances.
