How much does the Wimbledon women's winner make? Prize money for singles in 2025
Every sport comes with it’s own set of unique terms and tennis is no different.
Watch one tennis match and you’ll hear plenty of words that aren’t common in other competitions – drop shot, ace, approach shot, volley, fault, break point and more. However, there is one universal term that transcends sports and all walks of life.
Money.
It’s a language that doesn’t require translation and is coveted by all. While Wimbledon is loaded with history, honor and prestige, there is also a sizable check at the end for the last player left standing. Unlike the men’s side of the bracket, there is a little more parity in the recent history of the women’s side.
Regardless, all the checks count for the same amount of cash and everyone wants their name to be on it.
