Swiatek: 5th highest prize money in history in a single season
Three titles, a final ranking of world No. 2, some rough patches… At first glance, Iga Swiatek's 2025 season is not her best.
But behind this seemingly moderate sporting record lies a financial turning point: the Polish player reached the highest total earnings of her entire career this year, crossing a threshold that none of her previous seasons had managed to reach.
In 2025, Swiatek accumulated $10,112,532, her first season beyond $10 million, a symbolic milestone reserved for a tiny elite of women's tennis.
The core of this treasure? Her masterful triumph at Wimbledon, which earned her $3,923,850, but also semi-finals in Australia and Roland-Garros and a title in Cincinnati. Fewer trophies, but more matches that pay big.
Before this 2025 vintage, her most lucrative season was 2022, with $9,875,525, already a colossal figure. Her following years confirmed her exceptional consistency:
- 2025: $10,112,532
- 2024: $8,550,693
- 2023: $9,857,686
- 2022: $9,875,525
- 2021: $1,923,151
- 2020: $2,261,213
- 2019: $633,807
She thus climbs to the 5th highest of all time, joining a very rare circle: Sabalenka, Serena Williams, Ashleigh Barty and Angelique Kerber, the only ones before her to have surpassed $10 million in a single season.
