If she received an execution she must already have a judgment entered against her. If she has assets they should be turned over. If she owns nothing, she gives nothing.

Dear Reader:
In examining this response, please note that we are not entering into an attorney/client relationship, that this is to be taken as informative, and not as legal advice, that it is always best to speak to a lawyer in your area and/or in the area where the transaction and/or events occurred, and that my answer is necessarily limited by the fact that I have not seen the documentation or had an opportunity to go over the matters with you in detail.
You have not provided enough information. Did she get sued and default? Did she ever get a summons? Is the plaintiff permitted to prevent showing the match? Did she even show the match on TV? What papers if any did she get?
As I mentioned before, this is something that you will want to take up with a lawyer of your own selection, either in your state or area or in a place where some of the pertinent events occurred. Gather all of the pertinent papers, call a lawyer, and lay it out, and you will have a plan of action.
