Win a match, cash a check.
On the surface, that’s the task for the participants at Wimbledon, who rely on their success in the sport for income. However, it’s much more than that at this famed venue.
Much like The Masters in golf, Wimbledon carries a sort of prestige that cannot be replicated. The all-white uniforms. The grass courts. The royalty.
That all permeates through the air, signaling that this isn’t just your average tennis match. It’s certainly a long way from playing on a court in the park.
After two weeks of battling on the grass courts, someone will cash the big check, but also leave their mark in the history of the sport. The money is nice. Making history might be even better. Getting both in one place is just the icing on the cake.
Here’s a breakdown of the prize money for the men’s singles tournaments at Wimbledon in 2025.
