Sinner wins Wimbledon: glory and millions

London. July 14, 2025 – Three million (and a half) in his pocket and a glory forever etched on the walls of the All England Club as well as in the pride of Italy as a whole. Behind that golden cup raised to the sky is more: a huge prize, practically worthy of a millionaire. Jannik Sinner , thanks to his victory over Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final, takes home 3 million pounds, or €3,517,900 to be exact. Just under half (1,520,000 pounds (1,782,400 euros) awarded to his Spanish opponent. Wimbledon confirms itself as the slam of records, starting with the prize money: compared to the 2024 edition, the increase in prize money is quantified at +7%. Translated into numbers, it is around 300 thousand euros more than whoever took home the singles title last year. Rich prizes also for those who advanced a few rounds in the draw. Just think of Lorenzo Sonego : the Turin native, reaching the round of 16, pocketed 281,400 euros . Flavio Cobolli , even, stopped in the quarterfinals only by Djokovic (the Serbian then defeated immediately after by Jannik) enriched his wallet with around 470 thousand euros .
The South Tyrolean has earned a world-class prize pool since the start of 2025: well over seven million euros (including Wimbledon, of course). He's also earned forty-one million euros since the start of his career. That doesn't even include sponsorship income .
The victory writes "another page in the history of Italian sport," commented Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni . "Jannik Sinner triumphs at Wimbledon and makes an entire nation dream. Proud of you, champion!"
Jannik has now broken (almost) every record, but legend Nicola Pietrangeli isn't holding back: "Sinner is unbeatable. Right now, there's no one who can beat him, only Alcaraz could. He can play with an advantage. I'm happy, he's great, also because he's a clean and decent guy." And when the former Italian tennis player is asked about a possible Career Grand Slam , he says: "What's better than winning Wimbledon and being the world's leading tennis player? If he wins the Career Grand Slam, I don't see it as a miracle."
The political world sides with the champion, as do his colleagues, and so national pride" gives way to the words of Lorenzo Musetti, the Italian number two: "No words Jannik," meaning "speechless." The Tuscan tennis player is then closely followed by the recently retired Fabio Fognini: the Ligurian posts photos of an unforgettable moment on his Instagram profile.
