The tennis world has been privileged with the pristine performances of Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, and Novak Djokovic who are also famously dubbed as ‘The Big Three.’
Together these three players have amassed a massive collection of Grand Slam titles and have never ceased to amaze crowds all across the globe with their dominance on the ATP Tour.
While the world stays amazed by their tactics and on-court staging of trick shots, what lies behind are the jaw-dropping earnings they’ve minted through their competitive years.
There is no room for doubt that tennis has been graced by the emergence of these legends and their total earnings also speak for themselves having been written off with huge numbers.
According to the current stats, the earnings of Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal surprisingly do not exceed those of Roger and Novak. The Spaniard ranks at the third spot in his net worth, notably $200 million.
Despite Rafael Nadal leveling with Novak Djokovic in terms of Grand Slam wins i.e. 22 titles, the ‘King of Clay’ somehow lags behind Nole’s net worth and on-court earnings which begs the question of how much.
What is Novak Djokovic’s net worth?
Serbian tennis professional Novak Djokovic astounded the world with his performance and ascertained his dominance in the circuit no one saw coming from a kid heading from a small village in Serbia.

The Spaniard, as of 2023, has a total net worth of $200 million, which comes following both his on-court earnings and multiple brand deals with giants such as Nike and Richard Mille.
What is Roger Federer’s net worth?
Last but not the least, the ‘Swiss Maestro’ is by far the most loved, minted, and recognized athlete, not just amongst tennis enthusiasts but across the globe owing to his gentlemanly attitude and the sheer sass he carried with himself every time he turned up.
Roger Federer sadly departed from tennis last year when he made a public announcement of his retirement via his Instagram account and later performed for the final time at the Laver Cup, representing Team Europe.

The former Swiss professional’s earnings certainly exceed those of Nole and Rafa and he had earned a massive figure of $1 billion in prize money at the time of his retirement.
Most of Roger’s earnings now come from various brand endorsements and he is the only men’s player with the most brand deals signed to his name, notably 8, with brands such as Rolex, Uniqlo, and Lindt. His total net worth as of 2023 lies at $550 million which surpasses both the Serb and the Spaniard by a definitive margin.
