How much is the prize money for Sinner's Wimbledon victory?

The 2024 Wimbledon Championships have concluded, with Italian rising star Jannik Sinner defeating his opponent in the men's singles final, claiming his first Wimbledon trophy in his career. Besides the honor, the champion's prize money has also drawn public interest.

According to the official prize distribution plan released by Wimbledon for 2024, the men's singles champion can receive £3.1 million (approximately 28 million RMB) in prize money. This figure represents an increase compared to previous years, reflecting the event's motivation for top players.

However, this prize money is not the "net amount." As a professional athlete, Sinner needs to deduct various expenses: first is the tax, as the UK imposes a tax of about 20% on prize money for non-resident athletes, which means approximately £620,000 will go towards taxes; secondly, he also needs to pay a share to his team (coaches, fitness trainers, etc.), which typically accounts for 10% to 15% of the prize money; additionally, there are hidden costs related to travel, accommodation, and other event-related expenses.

After deducting all expenses, Sinner is expected to take home between £1.8 million and £2 million (approximately 16 million to 18 million RMB). Despite the deductions, this remains a substantial income, not only affirming his performance on the court but also providing strong support for his future career development.

It is worth mentioning that Wimbledon, being the oldest event among the four Grand Slams, has a stable and generous prize system. In addition to the champion, other advancing players also receive corresponding prize money. Sinner's victory not only brings him significant earnings but also further solidifies his top position in the world tennis rankings due to the points awarded from this prestigious event.
