Raducanu still set to receive $500,000 in endorsements despite being on the sidelines and not playing Wimbledon

Britain’s Emma Raducanu earns a handsome amount of money despite not playing a single match at Wimbledon.

The 20-year-old has not played a single match at the third Grand Slam of the year because of numerous injuries in the recent past.

However, despite that, Raducanu will earn as much as $500,000 as compensation from the sponsors.

The amount will definitely make the Toronto-born feel much better going forward, especially considering she is having a tough time while playing at the highest level.

Raducanu broke onto the scene during the 2021 US Open where she clinched the title after beating Canada’s Leylah Fernandez in straight sets in the final with a score of 6-4, 6-3.

The result was a shocking one considering that Raducanu entered the Grand Slam through a qualifier and still went all the way and lifted the title.

After that result, things have not been great for the former world number 10 who has struggled with fitness concerns.

Since then, out of the seven Grand Slams, she has participated in five of them. During that, she suffered four second rounds and one first-round exit.

In 2023, Raducanu has only taken part in one Grand Slam — Australian Open — where she suffered a defeat in the second round against America’s Coco Gauff with a score of 6-3, 7-6.
