Aryna Sabalenka, Coco Gauff, and Iga Swiatek's dominance continued for yet another season. The trio swept three of the four Majors in 2025, and account for nine of the 12 Majors since the start of 2023. Claiming the tour's biggest trophies also comes with a massive payday, and they are among the top prize money earners of 2025.
While the three of them earned a pretty penny this year, it was Sabalenka who had the last laugh, amassing a total of $15,008,519. Swiatek made $10,112,532, while Gauff's earnings for the year stood at $7,969,845.
Sabalenka's $15 million haul was largely powered by her $5 million paycheck following her US Open triumph. She received $2.6 million as the runner-up at the WTA Finals, and a combined $2.6 million for reaching the Australian Open and French Open finals. She also earned a combined $2 million as the champion in Miami and Madrid.
