According to the ranking compiled by Forbes, from May 1, 2022 to May 1, 2023, Federer was the highest paid tennis player in the world, earning $95 million.
A 20-time winner of Grand Slam titles, the Swiss took home only $125,000 in sports prizes in the last year, along with his participation in the Laver Cup. The rest comes from off-field activity, with numerous sponsorship deals with global brands.
Federer’s earnings last year, when the retirement was not yet official, amounted to 90.7 million. The current figure allows Roger to be among the highest paid athletes in the world, the first among tennis players. It is in the Top 10 overall. More precisely, on the 9th.
In front of Federer are Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Mbappé, LeBron James, boxer Canelo Alvarez, golfers Dustin Johnson and Philip Mickelson, Steph Curry. Behind Roger, closing the Top 10, is basketball player Kevin Durant. All are active sportsmen.
