    A similar conversation often arises in tennis, where a player with an injury will fight to win a match only to withdraw from the tournament before the next round. Often they know they are unlikely to play / win in the next round due to their injury, but their prize money and ranking is dependent on their tournament performance, so it still matters to try to win.
