Wimbledon is giving players a raise.
The grass-court Grand Slam is offering a greener prize pasture paying out a record £53.5 million (about $72.7 million) in total prize money this summer, which represents a 7 percent increase over the £50 million in prize money it paid out in 2024.
Singles champions will collect a £3 million (about $4 million) pay check, up from the £2.7 million Gentleman’s champion Carlos Alcaraz and Ladies’ champion Barbora Krejcikova each earned in 2024.
This year, singles finalists will each earn £1.520 million, an increase over the £1.4 million Ladies finalist Jasmine Paolini and Gentlemen’s finalist Novak Djokovic received in 2024.
The 2025 first-round singles prize money is set at £66,000 compared to the £60,000 first-round prize money paid out in 2024.
