Wimbledon 2025 Boosts Payouts, Adopts Tech Upgrades

Wimbledon 2025 will feature a record prize pool of £53.5 million (about $73 million), a 7% increase from last year and double the amount from a decade ago. Both men's and women's singles champions will each receive £3 million ($4 million), while first-round singles losers will earn £66,000, with prize increases also applying to doubles, mixed doubles, and wheelchair events. The All England Club chair, Deborah Jevans, stated that while the prize money boost addresses player demands for a greater share of Grand Slam revenues, major concerns such as the lack of an off-season and rising injuries persist. For the first time, electronic line-calling will be used throughout the tournament, replacing human line judges. Match scheduling has been updated so singles finals will start later in the day to enhance the experience for players and fans. The tournament will run from June 30 to July 13, 2025.
