Australian sports management student Ellen Perez will turn down more than $50,000 in US Open prize money to remain in college in America.Perezs grand slam debut was short and sweet as Australian Open quarter-finalist Zhang Shuai ousted the wildcard playoff winner 6-1 6-1 inside an hour on Tuesday.But the 20-year-old said she thoroughly enjoyed the experience despite the belting. It was pretty exciting to be out there, Perez said.It definitely didnt go as planned, or as hoped, but it was great to be able to have my grand slam debut and get out on court in front of all the fans and what-not.It was nice.Not nice enough, though, for Perez to give up her scholarship at the University of Georgia for a pro career just yet.If I choose to definitely stay at college, I have to only take my expenses, so Ill be leaving a good 40k behind, she said.The pay cheque for first-round losers is actually a record $US43,300 ($A57,200), but Perez said it was a small sacrifice for an education.The world No.723 - who beat Naiktha Bains, Arina Rodionova and Ashleigh Barty in successive matches to make the main draw at Flushing Meadows - is two years into her four-year degree.They put in a lot of money for our education, said the emerging South Coast star from Shellharbour.I think our scholarships are worth almost two hundred thousand (dollars) a year.The college has given me a lot, so losing 40 grand isnt too big of a problem.Perez was anything but discouraged by her 50-minute thrashing, saying shed received a priceless lesson in the intensity of life as a grand slam performer.I definitely need to play at that level more often, she said.I havent been able to experience that high level of tennis before.My highest level is probably a 50k main draw so it definitely is a big step up and I definitely felt the pressure of her and I know Ive got a lot of things I need to improve.Definitely a learning experience. Even being able to train with good players here, I learnt a few things and I hope the next time I get the opportunity that I can step up and hang with them a little better.

The 2016-17 National Basketball League season is over the halfway mark with Sydney Kings the top dogs, their standing atop the ladder the one constant over the past few rounds whilst the remainder of the teams have chopped and changed positions.Beneath the Kings, no team has endured the ups and downs more this season than Adelaide 36ers: after round seven the Sixers were riding a four-game losing streak to boast a 3-6 win-loss record; things since have clicked and the 36ers head into round 11 as the hottest team in the league on the back of a five-game winning streak.Adelaide achieved one of those wins in round eight, at Qudos Bank Arena, on the back of solid performances from Jerome Randle and Daniel Johnson while Cadee was quiet with only five points.The Kings and 36ers will play twice during round 11, each hosting one game at home.The 36ers may replace the Kings in the No. 1 spot if they can pull of the double, whilst the Kings can reaffirm their stance on top and send Adelaide tumbling down the standings.Plenty to play for, then, with big-name players such as dual MVP Kevin Lisch, Jerome Randle and Josh Powell to feature; but Jason Cadee is the biggest taking point ahead of the first encounter in Addelaide.ddddddddddddCadee spent two seasons playing for Adelaide in the 2012-13 and 2013-14 NBL seasons, and he is excited about returning to his old stomping ground.I loved my time in Adelaide, Cadee told ESPN of his time in Adelaide, where he finished on the bottom of the ladder in his opening season before reaching the grand final in his second year.I had a lot of fun and met some great people. I love being able to go back there and see those people again.Im going back as a Sydney King now and looking to get a win; its not an easy place to do it and theyre playing very well at the moment, but Im looking forward to the challenge.Cadee certainly isnt fazed about the potential reaction of the home fans when he returns.If they cheer for me, then great; if they dont, then thats how its supposed to be when youre against them.Cadee says the Kings still have plenty of room for improvement with the teams now turning their attention towards the finals and looking to claim one of the top-four positions.Hopefully we can go about that and put ourselves in a good spot come finals time.
