Alexander Zverev has bragging rights over Jannik Sinner and Boris Becker in career prize money

Despite never winning a Grand Slam title like colleague Jannik Sinner or tennis legend Boris Becker, Alexander Zverev has surpassed both in one particular aspect; career earnings.

The German superstar has reached two Major finals, finishing runner-up at both. Furthermore, he boasts an Olympic gold medal and an ATP Finals title, in addition to reaching the World No.2 position. Nonetheless, he has never been able to win a title on the biggest stage in tennis.

Nonetheless, the 27-year old has banked more than everyone else in tennis history, with the exception of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray. Zverev has raked in a staggering £34.2million ($44.8million) across singles and doubles since turning pro in 2013.

Conversely, World No.1 Jannik Sinner has earned £21.1m ($28.6m) in career earnings. The Italian amassed £2.7m ($3.6m) from his win at Flushing Meadows last week, and has also earned £8m ($11m) and counting in 2024, the most on the ATP Tour.

Zverev has also made more than every retired tennis icon, including his compatriot Becker. The former World No. 1 won seven Grand Slam titles during his career but only earned £19m ($25m), with prize money significantly lower during his time on tour. Only Djokovic and Nadal have raked in more prize money than Zverev among active players, pocketing £141m ($184m) and £103m ($135m) respectively.
