Maria Sakkari won the most important title of her career in Mexico a day ago.
She won the WTA 1000 tournament in Guadalajara and put $450,500 in her bank account for her success.
With this money, the Greek tennis player “broke” the $10 million barrier in her career. This is money that comes only from tournament entries and not from sponsorships.
After the title in Mexico, Maria Sakkari now has 10,262,923 dollars.
She has won 2 titles in her career, played in 2 Grand Slam semi-finals (Roland Garros, US Open 2022), and was a finalist in 2 other WTA 1000 tournaments.
70 female tennis players (active and non-active) have earned more than $10 million with Serena Williams with 94,816,730 being the top!
