It's finals weekend at Wimbledon , with Jasmine Paolini, Barbora Krejcikova, Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic all looking to claim glory after SW19 chiefs unveiled an eye-catching £50million prize pot. A first-time Wimbledon women’s singles champion will be crowned for the seventh year in a row as Paolini battles Krejcikova on Saturday. In Sunday's showpiece, Alcaraz will get the chance to defend the title he won in dramatic fashion by beating Novak Djokovic in a five-set epic in 2023.

Alcaraz and Djokovic renew their rivalry in the final - and it's set to be a thrilling match once again. The overall prize pot has been increased from last year’s total of £44.7m to £50m, meaning that players who went out in the first round will still net £60,000.



Deborah Jevans, Chair of the All England Club, said: “With this year’s Championships only days away, I am delighted to announce a record prize money fund of £50 million, with increases for players in every round and across every event. I am particularly pleased that we have been able to increase prize money for the wheelchair and quad wheelchair competitions to £1 million for the first time. “Interest in attending Wimbledon has never been greater, with unprecedented demand for tickets through our public ballot and corporate hospitality.

A thriving, successful Championships gives us the opportunity to give back: to the sport, to our local community, and to strategically invest for the future.” Winner: £2.7m Runners-.
