The 2018 tennis prize money list
$205,344,351 won on court in 2018, split between 390 players. Novak Djokovic took $15,967,186 of it.
Every player the tour paid in 2018, 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 12.8% on 2017, and is the 6th biggest of the 55 seasons we hold.
The twenty biggest earners of 2018
Prize money won in the 2018 season
Ten players out of 390 took 35.1% 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.

| 09 | John Isner United States | $1,836,955 | $4,320,641 | +135.2% |
| 10 | Kei Nishikori Japan | $1,491,756 | $4,049,256 | +171.4% |
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 2017 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.
