ATP Prize Money Leaders Update: Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner unchallenged at the top

The ATP Prize Money Leaders, at the start of the American hardcourt swing, continue to show Carlos Alcaraz as the clear leader, with a substantial lead of over $3 million over his immediate pursuer, Jannik Sinner.

Despite the Italian having won two Grand Slam titles this year – compared to one for the Spaniard – "Carlitos" ($9.5M) benefits from his four season titles. Sinner ($8.43M), on the other hand, was impacted by three months off the court.

The World No. 1 still has more than double the prize money earned this year compared to the third place, Alexander Zverev ($3.52M), in a particularly tight part of the table. A little further back are Novak Djokovic ($3.4M) and Jack Draper ($3.26M).

While the Serb primarily benefits from his deep runs in Grand Slam tournaments, the Brit takes advantage of consistent good results in other tournaments, notably the title in Indian Wells and the final in Madrid.

Over $3 Million Earners: Fritz Joins the elite

Taylor Fritz ($3.16M) closely follows, being the last player to exceed $3 million in earnings. The American not only leads his country in the rankings but also in prize money achieved this season. With a 30-12 record and two titles this year, Fritz has managed to maintain his prominence throughout 2025.

ATP prize money continues to grow each year at every tournament, including Grand Slam tournaments. Currently, six tennis players have surpassed $3 million in on-court earnings, 13 have exceeded $2 million, and 40 are above $1 million for the year. Additionally, 96 players have already surpassed $500,000 in earnings throughout 2025.
