Wimbledon 2026: What is the prize money per round this year?

The champions of the 2026 Wimbledon men’s and women’s singles will each win £3.6m in prize money – a rise of £600,000 from last year.

There is a total prize fund of £64.2m at the tournament, a figure that is split between all rounds of the competition. Also included in that figure is money won by players in the men’s and women’s singles that entered via qualification.

The total Wimbledon prize pot has increased by more than £10m from last year.

Despite the significant prize money increase, some top players had staged a protest by limiting media appearances to 15 minutes.

But that protest has now ended following “constructive meetings” with the All England Club.

Reaching the first round of the competition in the men’s or women’s singles earns players £80,000. That figure jumps to £126,000 for players moving into the second round.

Getting beyond that and into the last 32 takes players to £185,000, while those making the last 16 will earn £300,000 each.

Players reaching the quarter-finals will earn £480,000, and a win in that round to progress to the semi-finals would take players to £900,000.

Finishing as the runner-up in one of the singles competitions is worth £1.8m.

There are prize pots for the other competitions at the Championships, but they are significantly lower than the two main singles competitions.

Prize pots are not cumulative, with players jumping up a prize bracket until the round in which they are eliminated.
