Athletistic/Tennis. Russian tennis players were able to return to the Wimbledon tournament after being suspended from participation last year. The following Russians took part in the men’s group of the tournament: Daniil Medvedev, Andrey Rublev, Alexander Shevchenko, Roman Safiullin and Aslan Karatsev.

Wimbledon in 2023 set a record prize pool in tournament history at £44.7 million (around €52.2 million). That’s 11.2% more than a year earlier and 17.1% more than Wimbledon 2019.

In the distribution of prize money, the importance of supporting players in the early rounds of competition continues to be important. Qualifying prize money has been increased by 14.5% on last year, with players who lost in the first round of the Wimbledon main draw receiving £55,000 (€64,000), up 10% on to 2022.

Earnings of Russian tennis players at Wimbledon 2023 in men’s singles:

  • Daniil Medvedev (reached the 1/2 finals) won £600,000.
  • Andrey Rublev (reached the quarter-finals) won £340,000.
  • Roman Safiullin (reached the quarter-finals) won £340,000.
  • Aslan Karatsev (reached 2nd round) won £85,000.
  • Alexander Shevchenko (eliminated in the 1st round) won £55,000.
