How much do Wimbledon stars earn for getting knocked out in first round?

WIMBLEDON is under way with some of the world's best tennis stars converging upon SW19 for the illustrious event.

Last year Elena Rybakina stunned Centre Court by beating world number two Ons Jabeur in a dramatic Ladies' Single's final.

And Novak Djokovic retained his 2021 title by overcoming Nick Kyrgios.

But some aren't quite so successful and fail to make it out of the opening round.

Unfortunately, Harriet Dart became the first Brit to be eliminated in 2023, losing 6-7, 6-0, 6-4 to France's Diane Parry.

But Dart will still be in line for prize money.

How much do tennis players get for going out in Wimbledon first round?

Players who lose in the first round walk away with a staggering £55,000.

But you can pick up just under £85,000 if you make it a round further.

Quarter-finalists will make £340,000, with third and fourth-rounders getting £131,000 and £207,000 respectively.

But the cash doesn't stop there, as you can still make a cool £600,000 to make it to the semi-final.
