The 10 Richest Male Tennis Players in the World (2025 Edition)
The men’s tennis scene has undergone a major transformation in recent years. With Roger Federer retired, Rafael Nadal semi-retired, and Andy Murray on the verge of hanging up his racquet, a new generation has stepped up, both on court and in the earnings column.
But while endorsements and brand deals get headlines, this ranking looks at something more straightforward: pure prize money earned on the ATP Tour. From career-defining Grand Slams to season-long consistency, these ten players have cashed in big, and the gap between them is eye-opening.
Here’s a look at the richest active male tennis players in the world right now, based solely on prize money, from up-and-coming challengers to one undisputed king.
10. Andrey Rublev – £21.5 Million
Rublev has never reached a Grand Slam final, but his sheer consistency at ATP 500 and Masters level has made him a top earner. Known for his blistering forehand and fiery court presence, the 27-year-old has regularly gone deep in major events. While 2025 finds him outside the world’s top 10, Rublev’s potential for a resurgence, and an even fatter bank account, is still very much alive.

9. Grigor Dimitrov – £22.5 Million
Once touted as the “next Federer,” Dimitrov carved out a unique legacy with graceful shot-making and stylish tennis. The 2017 ATP Finals champion reached three Grand Slam semi-finals and spent much of his career ranked among the elite. Now in his 30s, the Bulgarian remains a fan favorite — and a quietly wealthy one, too.
8. Marin Cilic – £23.9 Million
Cilic’s 2014 US Open title was no fluke, he’s also been a finalist at Wimbledon and the Australian Open. His powerful game and steely mentality helped him stay relevant through multiple tennis eras. Even now, after years out of the spotlight, he’s making noise again with a title at the 2025 Nottingham Open. His earnings reflect both peak success and a long, steady run near the top.
7. Stefanos Tsitsipas – £25.9 Million
Tsitsipas burst onto the scene with flair and fire, and has remained one of the tour’s most compelling figures ever since. A finalist at the French Open and Australian Open, he also claimed the 2019 ATP Finals. While his 2025 campaign has had its ups and downs, a title win in Dubai shows he's still a force. His one-handed backhand might be old-school, but his prize money numbers are anything but.
6. Stan Wawrinka – £27.8 Million
Often overshadowed by Federer in his home country, Wawrinka built a legacy all his own with three Grand Slam wins, each against a member of the Big Three. His 2015 French Open title and iconic one-handed backhand are etched in tennis history. Even in his 40s, he continues to compete, defying time and padding his prize money stats along the way.

5. Daniil Medvedev – £34.7 Million
Medvedev has become a hard-court juggernaut with consistent runs at majors and a landmark win at the 2021 US Open. Known for his unorthodox style and mental toughness, the Russian has reached three Australian Open finals and remains a fixture in the late stages of top tournaments. At just 29, he still has plenty of time to climb even higher on this list.
4. Jannik Sinner – £36.1 Million
Few have risen faster than Jannik Sinner. At just 24, the Italian already owns back-to-back Australian Open titles, a US Open crown, and an ATP Finals win. His cool head and relentless groundstrokes make him a nightmare for opponents. With a calm demeanor off-court and killer instinct on it, Sinner is cashing in, and shows no signs of slowing down.
3. Carlos Alcaraz – £39.5 Million
A six-time Grand Slam champion by 22, Alcaraz has taken tennis by storm. Blending raw power with dazzling finesse, the Spaniard made headlines with his 2023 Wimbledon win over Djokovic. His youth, charisma, and jaw-dropping athleticism have already made him a global icon, and one of the wealthiest stars on tour.
2. Alexander Zverev – £40.4 Million
Zverev may still be chasing that elusive Grand Slam title, but his consistency has paid off big time. Olympic gold, two ATP Finals trophies, and 24 ATP titles have earned him a hefty payday. Despite injuries and controversy, he continues to thrive, reaching major finals and staying near the top of the rankings, and the money list.

1. Novak Djokovic – £140.4 Million
No surprise here, Djokovic towers above the rest. With a record 24 Grand Slam titles and over 400 weeks as world number one, he’s the most decorated player in the history of the sport. His prize money haul is nearly £100 million more than any other active male player. Even at 38, he remains motivated, evolving, and competitive, with eyes set on defending his Olympic title in 2028. Simply put, he’s the richest, and arguably the greatest, male tennis player of all time.
