Wimbledon offers record prize money for 2023 Championships

A record prize pool is up for grabs at Wimbledon 2023...

The prize money on offer for tennis events this year (not including per diems) is an 11.2% increase on 2022 and a 17.1% increase on the pre-pandemic Championships in 2019.

The Ladies' and Gentlemen's Singles champions and runners-up will receive £2,350,000 and £1,175,000 respectively, with prize money for these two rounds rising to the levels they were in 2019.

The prize money distribution continues to place importance on supporting players in the early rounds of the event. The Qualifying Competition prize money fund has received a 14.5% increase on last year, while Main Draw Singles players losing in the first round will receive £55,000, a 10% increase on 2022.

The prize pool for the Gentlemen's and Ladies' Doubles is a 10.7% increase on last year, while the Wheelchair and Quad Wheelchair Singles and Doubles events all rose by just shy of 20%.

"We are delighted to offer record prize money to the players competing at The Championships this year, with double digit increases across the majority of events," said Ian Hewitt, Chairman of the All England Club.

"Our ambition with this distribution is to return the singles champions and runners-up prize money to the levels in 2019 prior to the pandemic whilst, alongside, providing deserved support for players in the early rounds of the event."
