Coco Gauff has had an incredible year on the tennis court. Her impressive performances have been rewarded with major financial gains, solidifying her position as one of the top earners in women’s tennis.
At the 2023 China Open, Gauff earned a total of $781,100 from the hard work she put in. This includes an additional $108,400 she won from a doubles match earlier in the tournament. This is added to the $3 million she earned from her Grand Slam title at the US Open, resulting in an overall total of $5.5 million for the season. Not only did she make a large sum of money, but she also became the youngest woman to win a Grand Slam title since Serena Williams in 1999, according to Billionaires Africa.
Gauff’s 16-match winning streak, which began last August in Cincinnati, came to an end when she played Polish tennis player Iga Swiatek on Oct. 7. Despite this, Gauff’s success this year has been undeniable. She is now ranked number 3 in the world for female tennis players, according to ESPN. Her total career earnings now sit at $11,107,463, and she has earned a total of $5,557,372 in 2023 alone.
Gauff’s journey in the professional tennis world began in 2018 when she was only 14 years old. At her debut at the USTA Pro Circuit event in Osprey, FL, Gauff showed immense promise. Now, she stands as one of the greatest contenders in the tennis world, making history and breaking records.
