Overview

• Wimbledon’s total prize pot has risen by 7% to £53.5 million, doubling payouts over the past decade.
• Men’s and women’s singles champions will each receive £3 million, an 11.1% increase from 2024, while first-round singles losers will earn £66,000, up 10%.
• All 18 match courts will employ electronic line-calling for the first time, replacing traditional line judges with automated Hawk-Eye technology.
• Singles finals have been moved to a 4 pm start to minimise late-night finishes on Centre Court.
• The All England Club attributes the prize increase to sustained player demands for a fairer Grand Slam revenue share and urges broader structural reforms in tennis.
