Grand Slam tennis combines fierce competition with huge financial rewards. From Alcaraz’s thrilling win at Roland Garros to the US Open’s record payouts, we highlight the top earnings and luxe amenities that support the sport’s elite players.
Great earnings for immense efforts. Great tennis champions not only achieve great feats to raise cups of triumph, but also go home with big checks for millions of dollars (although they must pay almost half of that in taxes).
Here, we tell you how much the champions of the four tennis Grand Slams earn.
The 2025 French Open distributed over $64 million in total prize money. Carlos Alcaraz earned nearly $3 million ($2.9 million) after a dramatic comeback win against Jannik Sinner, securing his second Roland Garros title and fifth Grand Slam overall.
On the women’s side, Coco Gauff took home around $2.9 million following her first French Open triumph over Aryna Sabalenka. Runner-ups Sinner and Sabalenka each received close to $1.5 million, while semifinalists and quarterfinalists also claimed significant payouts, alongside luxe amenities that enhance the players’ experience throughout the event.
In doubles, the champions share a prize of approximately $670,835, with payouts decreasing for runners-up, semifinalists, and earlier rounds.
Wimbledon raised its prize fund to £53.5 million ($72.59 million) in 2025, a 7% increase over the previous year and double what was offered a decade ago. Singles champions will receive £3 million ($4.07 million), making it the highest payout among all Grand Slam tournaments.
Along with these impressive cash rewards, Wimbledon has upgraded its luxe amenities to improve player comfort and fan engagement. These enhancements reflect the tournament’s commitment to offering world-class experiences both on and off the court.
In 2025, the overall prize fund for the tournament has reached a record-breaking A$96.5 million, equivalent to approximately $59.90 million USD. This marks a notable increase of 11.56% compared to the previous year, reinforcing the event’s status as one of the most financially rewarding competitions in the world of tennis.
Both the men’s and women’s singles draws award equal prize money across each stage. Players who reach the first round earned A$132,000, while those advancing to the second round received A$200,000. The third round brings a payout of A$290,000, and competitors reaching the Round of 16 took home A$420,000.
Quarter-finalists earned A$665,000, and those making it to the semi-finals received a significant A$1,100,000. The runner-up in each category walked away with A$1,900,000, while the champions claimed a grand prize of A$3,500,000, which translates to approximately $2.17 million USD.
Although information on this year’s US Open prizes is not yet available, last year’s may serve as a benchmark for 2025.
The 2024 US Open distributed $3.6 million to each singles champion, setting a record for prize money. Runner-ups earned $1.8 million, while semifinalists collected $1 million each.
Doubles champions earned $750,000 per team, accompanied by luxe amenities such as premium player lounges and state-of-the-art facilities, reinforcing the Grand Slam’s reputation for excellence.
Prize money in tennis grows significantly as players progress—from tens of thousands for early-round exits to millions for champions.
Singles competitions typically offer larger payouts than doubles, but playing both can increase total earnings. Beyond money, players enjoy luxe amenities at Grand Slam events, such as top-tier training facilities and exclusive hospitality zones that enhance performance.
Leading the 2025 prize money rankings are Carlos Alcaraz with $6.88 million, thanks to his French Open win and Masters titles, followed by Aryna Sabalenka with $5.92 million, and Coco Gauff with $5.55 million, boosted by her French Open triumph.
All four Grand Slams now guarantee equal prize money for men and women in singles events. However, disparities remain in many other tournaments, especially at lower tiers and in doubles competitions.
The sport continues striving for fairer prize distribution and enhanced luxe amenities to attract elite players and deliver unforgettable experiences to fans worldwide.
