John McEnroe tops annual list of highest-paid tennis players
In 2022 it looked like the tennis player’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Thursday (November 21) that McEnroe is the highest-paid tennis player in the world, pulling in an astonishing $75 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $40 million lead over his closest competition.
People With Money’s factors
In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The American tennis player has an estimated net worth of $215 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat McEnroe Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Wiesbaden Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure WondermcEnroe - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from John) and a fashion line called “John McEnroe Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many John fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
