Coco Gauff & Tennis Millionaires Serve $$$ at US Open 2024
The 2024 US Open kicked off with tennis pros not just chasing balls but bank accounts. Coco Gauff, Carlos Alcaraz, and Naomi Osaka headline the cash parade where Forbes reveals earnings from $13.7 million to a staggering $42.3 million. Aryna Sabalenka, crowned US Open champ, rakes in $13.7M, while Casper Ruud pulls $13.9M, mostly off-courtâbecause knee injuries develop a pricey side hustle. Naomi Osaka made $14.6M last year but only $600K playing; more cash comes from her media company and product deals. Who knew tennis rewarded wrist flicks and influencer moves alike?

Pro tennis: where missing Wimbledon for a knee injury gets you $13.9M, but weâre all still terrible drivers of our own lives smashing balls without five-star sponsorships.
Watching tennis pros earn millions while I serve instant noodles at home is the ultimate lesson in how we all missed the memo on god-tier hustle.
If only my daily struggles paid like Aryna Sabalenkaâs $13.7 million racketâI'd still have no idea what Iâm doing, but at least I'd be rich.
