ATP prize money leaders for 2025: Who earned the most? ft. Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, Novak Djokovic, Taylor Fritz

Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner dominated the 2025 ATP season, continuing their duopoly by sweeping all four Majors for the second consecutive year. Novak Djokovic, meanwhile, showed he is still more than capable of challenging the new generation, adding a couple of titles to his name and remaining a formidable force on tour.

**Ben Shelton, Jack Draper, and Lorenzo Musetti elevated their careers with standout performances throughout the year. Taylor Fritz and Alexander Zverev also reinforced their reputations as seasoned veterans with several strong results..

With these names capturing most of the season’s major titles, it comes as no surprise that they also rank among the highest prize-money earners of 2025. On that note, here’s a look at the players who collected the most prize money on the ATP Tour this season:**

#4. Novak Djokovic ($5.1 million).

Novak Djokovic was highly selective with his tournament schedule this year, yet still managed to earn $5.1 million in prize money. He reached the semifinals at all four Majors, becoming the oldest player in history to achieve this milestone.

Djokovic’s semifinal run at the US Open proved to be his most lucrative result of the year, earning him $1,260,000. He also finished as the runner-up to Jakub Mensik at the Miami Open, collecting an additional $597,890. However, his prize-money haul in 2025 is only a fraction of the staggering $21 million he amassed during his remarkable 2015 season.

#3. Taylor Fritz ($5.4 million)

While Taylor Fritz didn’t quite replicate the heights of his previous season, he still delivered a strong campaign in 2025. His highlights included winning two titles from three finals, along with semifinal runs at Wimbledon and at a couple of Masters 1000 events..

Fritz’s earnings of $5.4 million this year are notably lower than the $8.2 million he collected last season. His 2024 haul was boosted by runner-up finishes at both the US Open and the ATP Finals, which significantly inflated his prize money. Without similarly deep runs this year, his overall winnings naturally dropped..

Carlos Alcaraz delivered the best season of his career in 2025, securing the year-end No. 1 ranking for the second time. He captured eight titles from 11 finals, including triumphant runs at both the French Open and the US Open..

Alcaraz’s US Open triumph boosted his annual earnings by $5 million, while his French Open victory added nearly $3 million to his total. His recent runner-up finish at the ATP Finals was another lucrative result, earning him $2.7 million.

The 2025 season marked Alcaraz’s most lucrative year yet, surpassing the $16 million benchmark he set in 2024. With his earnings this season, he also crossed the $50 million milestone in career prize money, bringing his current total to an impressive $57 million.

#1. Jannik Sinner ($19.1 million)

Jannik Sinner enjoyed another massively profitable season, taking home $19.1 million in 2025 — just shy of his career-best $19.7 million haul from last year. His dominant run this season included titles at the Australian Open, Wimbledon, the ATP Finals, and three other tournaments.

His ATP Finals triumph alone earned him a record-breaking $5.07 million, the highest prize money payout ever from a single event. Sinner also captured the Six Kings Slam exhibition, pocketing an additional $6 million, although it does not count towards his official ATP earnings. With his latest successes, Sinner’s career prize money has now climbed to $56 million, placing him behind only Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic among active players.
