Grass is the only surface the women’s number one is yet to conquer, and with a fresh season getting underway this week, she will undoubtedly be eyeing a career Grand Slam. Ahead of the Australian Open, we are looking at Iga Swiatek’s net worth as a four-time major winner.
Iga Swiatek Net Worth: $25m Fortune at Just 22
Although the serial-winning clay specialist is most comfortable on the unforgiving brick and shale, you would be foolish to bet against her as she eyes a maiden Australian Open title this month. According to tennis betting sites, she is as short as 9/4 to add a fifth Grand Slam to her trophy haul.
At just 22, the Poland native has made Roland-Garros her very own tournament, winning three of the last four editions, while a staggering run to the US Open title last year where she swept aside Ons Jabeur in the final means she sits firmly among illustrious company as a four-time major winner.
Add to that a remarkable 17 WTA Tour titles and an overall career win percentage of 81.3%, Swiatek already ranks 14th on the all-time career winnings chart ($24,592,763).
A trophy-laden 2022, where at just 21 she lifted eight titles and registered the longest winning streak in the twenty-first century (37), means she also accumulated the fifth-highest prize money figure in a single season ($9.8m).
This was followed by the sixth-highest in 2023, winning six titles in total including a spellbinding showing at the WTA Finals to sweep aside Jessica Pegula in the final.
She must now turn her attention to flipping her misfortunes on grass on its head in 2024. Swiatek has been open about her learning curve on this grass-courts, which remains the only surface she it yet to win a WTA title on.
