The third grand slam of the year, Wimbledon, is around the corner and the hype around it is as high as always. Wimbledon is considered to be the most prestigious tournament in tennis due to its history and traditions. It is the oldest grand slam and till date, is almost unchanged with regards to its traditions.

The AELTC ON Wednesday released the total prize money distribution for the 2021 event. Wimbledon prize money will drop by 5.2 percent compared to 2019. The total prize money fund for The Championships 2021 will be £35,016,000, with the Ladies’ and Gentlemen’s Singles Champions each receiving £1,700,000.

“When setting prize money levels for this year, the AELTC considered a number of factors, including constraints on crowd capacity; the substantial investment required to provide quality accommodation with a full range of services in order to create a Minimised Risk Environment as well as a comprehensive testing programme for players and their support teams; and significant financial support for the wider grass court season, both in the UK and Europe,” the statement read.
