Not that I know of. Why would it be? It often gets talked about in the same sentence by the media, maybe that's why you're thinking it?
It actually is. What else would it be?
Premier League revenue in all it's forms - so sponsorship amongst other things.
Commercial revenue only accounts to 4% of payments made to clubs. Last season it was distributed equally, with each team getting around £4.8M, hardly prize money.
