With the Wimbledon purse at a record £31.6 million ($41.4 million) in 2017, the winners of the men’s and women’s draws will each collect £2.2 million ($2.88 million) to go along with their shiny new hardware. That’s up 10 percent from last year’s grand prize of £2 million.
For someone like Roger Federer, whose net worth is estimated somewhere in the $400 million range, but it’s still not a bad paycheck for two weeks of work.
It’s not all bad for those who come up short on Saturday and Sunday, either. The second-place finishes in each draw will each win £1.1 million ($1.44 million). The winners of the men’s and women’s doubles, meanwhile, will collect £400,000 ($524,080) per pair, while the winners of the mixed doubles receive £100,000 ($131,020).
