he value of a tennis tournament depends on its prestige—but if you’re Jannik Sinner, the stakes are sky-high. The 24-year-old from Sesto Pusteria could earn $6 million (around €5.15 million) by winning the Six Kings Slam, the high-profile exhibition event launched in Saudi Arabia in 2024.
The prize dwarfs even the golden racket awarded to Sinner, a four-kilogram trophy valued at roughly €250,000. While not playable, it is a symbol of prestige in a career whose estimated total earnings reach $50 million.
Even accounting for a three-month suspension linked to the Clostebol case, Sinner’s current season earnings exceed $12 million (€10.6 million). He secured victories at the Australian Open (AUD 3.5 million, €1.94 million) and Wimbledon (GBP 3 million, €3.45 million), with runner-up finishes at Roland Garros (€1.275 million) and the US Open ($2.5 million, €2.14 million).
