Overview

  • Forbes attributes the new billionaire status chiefly to Federer's minority stake in the shoe and apparel company On.
  • His commercial portfolio features long-running deals such as Uniqlo (reported $300 million over 10 years), Rolex and Mercedes‑Benz.
  • Federer earned roughly $131 million in career prize money, third in tennis history behind Novak Djokovic at $189 million and Rafael Nadal at $135 million.
  • He took an equity stake in On in 2019, the company listed on the NYSE in 2021, and he has helped develop both performance and lifestyle products.
  • Though retired, he is scheduled to play an exhibition in October at the Shanghai Masters titled "Roger Federer and Friends Celebrity Doubles Match."
