Jannik Sinner won his first Wimbledon title on Sunday, topping Carlos Alcaraz 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 and locking up his fourth grand slam title. In doing so, he jumped up the ATP career earnings rankings, passing a pretty notable name.
The victory will earn the 23-year-old Italian £3 million, which translates to a bit more than $4 million. In total during his career, Sinner has now earned $45,616,697, which is eighth all-time. Sunday's victory vaulted him over Pete Sampras, who is now ninth with $43,280,489. Sampras won 14 singles majors and finished as the year-end No. 1 six times, so it's abundantly clear that prize money has changed dramatically since he played.
