Yannick Sinner Earns €4.2 Million at Wimbledon but Loses Over Half to Taxes and Fees
Yannick Sinner secured his second consecutive Wimbledon title on July 12, 2026, marking his fifth Grand Slam victory. The Italian tennis star received a prize of 4.2 million euros, while runner-up Alexander Zverev earned 2.1 million euros. This year's Wimbledon prize pool totaled 75 million euros, the second highest in tennis history after the 2025 US Open.
Despite the substantial winnings, Sinner will part with more than half of his prize money due to British taxes and payments to coaches, agents, and fitness trainers. Specifically, 45% of his earnings will go to the UK government alone. Nevertheless, Sinner's career earnings have reached 69.7 million dollars, placing him fourth on the all-time tennis money list.
The top earners in tennis history are Novak Djokovic with 194.6 million dollars, Rafael Nadal with 134.9 million dollars, Roger Federer with 130.6 million dollars, followed by Sinner and Zverev with 69.7 million and 68.4 million dollars respectively.
