Emma Raducanu: $6 Million
Emma Raducanu set a few telling British records in 2021. She became the first British woman to win a Grand Slam title since 1977 when she won the U.S. Open. What’s amazing is that she only started her professional career in 2021 and entered the competition as a wild card, making her the first person to win a Grand slam from that position.
Before the U.S. Open, she entered Wimbledon as a wild card too and made the fourth round of the tournament. Her net worth has skyrocketed with her success, and what was initially $137,000, became $6 million thanks to her prize money and endorsements.
