For years, Coco Gauff was seen as tennis’s prodigy — a symbol of promise, potential, and poise. But now, the 21-year-old American isn’t just making headlines for her dominance on the court — she’s making bank. According to the latest financial rankings, Gauff has officially joined the exclusive list of the 10 highest-paid tennis players in the world over the last 12 months — standing shoulder-to-shoulder with names like Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner.
This isn’t just another paycheck story — it’s proof that Gauff’s star power has transcended sport, catapulting her into global superstardom.
Gauff’s journey to the top tier of earners is as inspiring as it is impressive. With her fierce play and magnetic personality, she’s become a marketing dream. Endorsements with brands like New Balance, Head, Rolex, and Barilla have turned her into one of the most marketable faces in modern tennis.
Insiders estimate that a huge portion of her income — over $10 million — came from off-court deals alone. Add to that her prize money from consistent WTA deep runs and her Roland Garros title, and Gauff has earned a total that rivals the very best in both the men’s and women’s games.
