Eubanks was a collegiate star at Georgia Tech. “Right now, I’m fine financially, but it’s tough to really be able to know,” he said. “You don’t know when this is going to end. It could go for three months or six. Am I OK for six? I hope so, but I am not entirely sure.”

One of the sticking points in negotiations has been determining how many players should receive assistance.

Some in the game, including the leaders of the Grand Slam events, want to help players ranked from 150 to about 500. Novak Djokovic, the top-ranked men’s player who is also president of the ATP player council, has been pushing for relief for those ranked between 250 and 700. He has support from Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer, who are both also on the player council.

“Outside of 250 is where the real financial struggle is,” Djokovic wrote in a message sent to a group of players last week. “We feel that we all need to get together and help these guys out.”

He added: “Many of them are thinking to leave pro tennis because they just can’t survive financially. Unfortunately, there is a very large amount of players in the group between 250 and 700 that is not supported by federations or don’t have sponsors.”

Djokovic, Federer and Nadal, who all have earned more than $100 million in career prize money, have proposed that the top 100 men’s singles players contribute to the relief fund on a sliding scale, with those in the top five contributing $30,000 and those ranked from 51 to 100 contributing $5,000. Top 20 doubles players would also contribute $5,000 each.

In total, this would generate about $1 million, which would come on top of the more than $6 million to be contributed by the seven governing bodies.
