TENNIS · 389 PLAYERS PAID

The 2017 tennis prize money list

$182,092,515 won on court in 2017, split between 389 players. Rafael Nadal took $15,864,001 of it.

Every player the tour paid in 2017, ranked by what they won that season and nothing else. A career total rewards longevity; a season list rewards the year, which is why the two rankings almost never agree at the top. The season is up 12.3% on 2016, and is the 7th biggest of the 55 seasons we hold.

Rafael Nadal $16m Roger Federer $13m Grigor Dimitrov $6.6m Alexander Zverev $5.1m Dominic Thiem $4.3m Marin Cilic $4.1m David Goffin $4.0m Jack Sock $3.5m Stan Wawrinka $3.0m Pablo Carreno Busta $3.0m Kevin Anderson $2.9m Juan Martin del Potro $2.6m Sam Querrey $2.4m Novak Djokovic $2.1m Andy Murray $2.1m Lucas Pouille $2.0m Nick Kyrgios $1.9m Jo-Wilfried Tsonga $1.9m John Isner $1.8m Tomas Berdych $1.8m

Ten players out of 389 took 34.3% of the season. A prize-money sport concentrates that way by construction: there is no wage and no appearance money on this list, so everything follows the rounds, and a player who reaches the second week of four majors has out-earned a year of quarter-finals everywhere else.

10 Pablo Carreno Busta Spain $1,362,032 $3,009,361 +120.9%

A season list moves harder than a career list. Prize money is paid for results and nothing else, so a player who was hurt for half of 2016 can treble his money in a year without doing anything differently, and a player who slips two rounds at three majors loses a third of his.
