The richest woman in tennis as of 2024 and 2025 is generally considered to be Serena Williams, who has a net worth estimated at 300 to 350 million dollars from prize money, endorsements, and business investments, though some former players like Billie Jean King have significant wealth too. Serena Williams earned over 94 million dollars in prize money alone, the highest for any woman, plus hundreds of millions from endorsements with Nike, Wilson, and other brands, and her venture capital firm Serena Ventures which invests in startups. Other wealthy female tennis players include Venus Williams with net worth around 95 million, Maria Sharapova with about 180 million from prize money and her Sugarpova candy business, and Naomi Osaka with net worth around 50 to 60 million from endorsements. However, Serena is richest among active and retired female players. If including former players who became businesswomen, Jessica Pegula, who is a current top WTA player, is heir to the Buffalo Bills fortune worth billions, but her personal tennis earnings are separate from family wealth. So in terms of self-made wealth from tennis, Serena Williams is the richest woman in tennis with net worth over 300 million dollars.
