Tennis Star Coco Gauff Tops List As Highest-Paid Female Athlete For Second Straight Year, Earning $33 Million

#CocoGauff has done it again! ??

The 21-year-old tennis star is the highest-paid female athlete in the world for the second consecutive year, topping Forbes’ 2025 earnings list with an estimated $33 million in total income.

#Forbes’ ranking combines both her on-court earnings, including prize money from tournaments such as Roland Garros and Wuhan, and off-court income from endorsements, licensing, appearances and memorabilia. While her success on the court contributed to her total, the bulk of Gauff’s earnings came from lucrative sponsorship deals with major brands, including #NewBalance, Bose, #Rolex, and Mercedes-Benz.

Congrats Coco!
