Introduction

Roger Federer is a Swiss former professional tennis player and investor with an estimated net worth of $900 Million.

We have examined various revenue streams based on Roger Federer’s professional tennis career earnings, his line of branded sporting goods, endorsement deals with well-paying brands like Mercedes-Benz, Rolex, and Credit Suisse, the Japanese apparel brand Uniqlo, and a whole host of other off-court sponsorships and endorsements. Mercedes-Benz recently re-signed Federer in a new record brand ambassador deal.

Not to mention the enormous prize payouts from winning the Wimbledon tournament and other major titles. With an average winner’s payout of nearly $2.5 million per tournament and 20 Grand Slam titles in the bag, his prize money from Grand Slams alone is somewhere in the region of $50 million.

In this profile, we’ll discuss our research into Roger Federer’s net worth, career earnings, and other aspects of his finances.

Quick Facts

• Debuted on the Forbes Billionaires Index in 2025
• Earned $130.6 million in prize money and bonuses during his career
• Peak annual winnings of $13 million in 2017
• Holds a 2.5% stake in the Swiss shoe company On Holding
• This stake is currently valued at roughly $233 million

Net Worth History

When we first began tracking Roger Federer’s finances in 2017, he had an estimated net worth of $400 million. Towards the end of the decade, that number reached $450 million, and in the beginning of the 2020s, estimates of his fortune increased to $550 million.

You’re probably wondering how his net worth almost doubled in just a few years, leading to his debut on the Forbes Billionaires Index in 2025. Federer began working with the Swiss shoe company ON in 2019 and later acquired a 2.5% stake in the company. The company’s market valuation skyrocketed from $5 billion in 2022 to an all-time high of $19.45 billion in January 2025, valuing Federer’s equity at roughly $486 million. Hence the reason for his billionaire status. 

Federer’s net worth peaked at an estimated $1.1 billion, but ON’s share price has fallen dramatically this year, effectively wiping out half of the company’s market cap. At the time of writing, Federer’s stake in the business is currently valued at $233 million.

As a result, he’s fallen off the Billionaires Index, and we’re currently estimating his net worth at approximately $900 Million.

Prize Money

Roger Federer played professional tennis for twenty-five years. While his peak annual winnings never exceeded those of Novak Djokovic or Rafael Nadal, he earned significant prize money during that time.

In 1997, Federer earned just $1,300 in prize money. The following year, his winnings increased to $27,300, and again in 1999 to $225,600. By 2002, Federer was earning almost $2 million/year in prize money and bonuses. That year, the most significant contributors to his annual earnings were $450,000 for his semi-final finish at the Tennis Masters Cup and $372,000 for winning the ATP Masters 1000 event in Hamburg.

From 2003 to 2019, Federer consistently earned between $4 million and $9 million annually from prize money and bonuses. Two of these years, in particular, earned him more than the rest. In 2007, Federer earned $10.1 million, mainly because he won three of the four major Grand Slam tournaments. His biggest payouts of the year were as follows:

• US Open (Win) – $2.4 million
• Wimbledon (Win) – $1.4 million
• ATP Tennis Masters Cup (Win) – $1.2 million
• Australian Open (Win) – $1 million

What was Roger Federer’s highest-earning year?

In 2017, Federer earned $13 million on the court, the highest annual earnings of his career. As in 2007, his Wimbledon and Australian Open titles were the most significant contributors to his 2017 prize money, earning him $2.84 million and $2.85 million, respectively.

According to our research, Roger Federer earned $117.4 million in career prize money, plus $13.2 million in bonuses, for a total of $130.6 million.

ON Holding Investment

Roger Federer has racked up hundreds of millions of dollars from brand endorsement deals over the years, but his most lucrative partnership wasn’t a typical endorsement.

In 2019, the former tennis pro became an investor in ON Holding, or On, the Swiss shoe and apparel company. The brand’s primary focus is the running market, but they’ve also expanded into hiking and tennis. In fact, their tennis range was designed exclusively around Federer, as every single model has been released under the “THE ROGER” branding.

On.com currently houses 30 SKUs of The Roger line, including models such as:

• The Roger Wildcard
• The Roger Pro Ace
• The Roger Clubhouse Ace
• The Roger Advantage
• The Roger Pro LDN
• The Roger Pro 3

According to reports, Federer holds a 2.5% equity stake in ON Holding, which, as we discussed in the intro, is the primary reason for his net worth fluctuations and his brief status as a billionaire this decade.

There are a couple of things worth mentioning here: When Forbes covered ONON’s market drop in August 2026, they said the following:

“Federer owns a roughly 2.5% stake in the Swiss athletic shoe company, Forbes estimates, with roughly 296 million class A shares and 341 million class B shares—which first drove his wealth to billionaire status last year.”

This is somewhat inaccurately worded, as those aren’t his total shares; they’re the company’s total issued shares as a whole. Federer likely holds just under 16 million ONON shares.

How much is his stake in ON Holdings worth?

On Holding launched its IPO in September 2021, and over the next couple of months, its market cap reached a temporary peak of $13.9 billion, before falling to just $5 billion in 2022. However, since then, the company’s annual revenues and net profits have grown consistently, with current revenues nearly tripling those of 2022 (CHF 1.22 billion to CHF 3.22 billion). Net profits have also grown from CHF 57.7 million to CHF 396 million during the same period.

Naturally, investors were excited by the growth, and the company’s share price soared. ON’s market cap nearly reached $20 billion in January 2025, meaning Federer’s 2.5% stake was worth roughly $486 million. This placed his net worth over $1 billion, allowing him to debut on the Forbes Billionaires Index. 

However, in the last year or so, investors haven’t been entirely satisfied. On Holdings has missed revenue expectations, and growth has slowed from 17% per year to 13% per year in the American market. As a result, ONON’s market cap is currently sitting at a two-and-a-half-year low of $9.35 billion, effectively halving the value of Federer’s stake to between $230 million and $240 million.

Introduction

Rafael Nadal is a Spanish former professional tennis player with an estimated net worth of $220 Million.

In 23 years of professional tennis, Rafael Nadal played 1,527 matches, won 92 tournaments, and earned approximately $134.93 million in prize money. This equates to average annual earnings of $5.87 million and roughly $88,360 per match.

His unique playing style and personality make him an aggressive counterpuncher known for exceptional speed. This, combined with his athleticism and assertiveness, has helped Rafa win many impressive matches.

This profile details all our research on Rafael Nadal’s net worth, tennis prize money, and how he spends his wealth.

Quick Facts

• Earned a total of $135 million in lifetime prize money and bonuses
• Earned roughly $550-$560 million during his career (winnings & sponsors)
• Peak annual winnings of $16.3 million in 2019
• Typically earned $25-$30 million per year off the court
• Secured endorsement deals with Kia, Nike, Richard Mille, and more
• Signed a 10-year, $100 million contract with Nike (2008)
• Earned approximately $160 million from his relationship with the brand
• Released ten signature watches with Richard Mille

Earnings History

Before we discuss the information in the table above, we need to point out a couple of things. Firstly, this information is from every year in which Rafael Nadal was featured on a Forbes list, including the Celebrity 100, “World’s Highest Paid Athletes”, and “Highest-Paid Tennis Players”. For each of his entries, except 2008-2010, Forbes lists estimates of Nadal’s annual income from both endorsement deals and prize money.

Secondly, Forbes uses a scoring period of June to June, not January to December. This is important to remember for later, because when we cover his lifetime prize money, all our figures will be from the official ATP database using January 1 to December 31 for each year’s totals. Thus, annual prize money in this table will be slightly different to that lower down in this article.

With that out of the way, let’s take a look at how much Rafa has earned from his career as a whole. Between June 2007 and June 2024, Forbes estimated that Nadal had earned a total of $515.2 million, a combined total from on-court and off-court income. According to our research, after accounting for the earlier years of his career that were missing from the list, we estimate Nadal earned $550-$560 million across all endeavors during his professional tennis career.

In 2010, the publication ranked him as the 3rd-highest-paid tennis player in the world, behind Maria Sharapova and Roger Federer. That year, he earned an estimated $21 million, though the split between prize money and endorsements wasn’t provided. We believe he was earning roughly $10 million from endorsements at the time, primarily led by his Nike deal.

The Spaniard’s annual income peaked at $44.5 million between June 2013 and June 2014, but typically ranged between $30 million and $40 million for the majority of his career. His other standout years include 2018 ($41.4 million) and 2020 ($40 million). According to the data, roughly 76% of Nadal’s income between 2010 and 2024 was earned off the court, through his lucrative brand endorsements. More detail on those to come later.

Prize Money

During his professional tennis career, Rafael Nadal earned an estimated $118.1 million in prize money, plus an additional $16.8 million in bonuses, for a total of $134.9 million. He earned between $4 million and $8 million in a typical year, but his highest-earning year was 2019, when he earned $16.3 million. Other outliers include $15.9 million in 2017, $14.6 million in 2013, and $10.2 million in 2010.

These figures don’t include additional off-court income sources from sponsors and endorsements.

Endorsement Deals

As we mentioned earlier, endorsement deals have earned Nadal approximately 3.5 times as much as the prize money he has secured. And that’s just for the period between 2011 and 2024. This is often the case for professional athletes in sports that don’t pay a consistent salary. Golf, tennis, track sports, skiing, and the like all typically see top athletes earn much more off the court, or whichever surface they play on.

Nadal’s estimated annual off-court income peaked in the first half of the 2010s. He earned approximately $21 million from endorsements between June 2010 and 2011, followed by an increase to $25 million over the next 12 months. Rafa first crossed the $30 million-per-year mark in 2014, the same year he earned $44.5 million overall, a career high.

Towards the end of the decade, that $30 million figure gradually declined to an estimated $26 million. For the last few years of his career, Nadal typically earned $23 million per year from endorsements, except for 2023. That year, he suffered numerous injuries, and sponsors ultimately abandoned him, assuming his playing career had come to an end. Bear in mind, he was 37 years old at the time.

All things considered, if Rafael Nadal did in fact earn approximately $351 million from brand endorsements between 2011 and 2024, where did the money come from?

Interestingly, the exact financials behind his well-known brand deals haven’t always been publicly disclosed. However, here’s what we do know:

Nike Endorsement Deal

Rafael Nadal was signed to Nike throughout the entirety of his career. He first joined the brand in 1998, when he was just 13 years old, on a five-year, $500,000 contract. Thus, between then and 2002, he earned $100,000 per year endorsing the company.

Once this contract expired, Nadal signed an extension with Nike, which, based on the timeline, we believe was also five years long. The only figure mentioned at the time was $1.8-$2 million per year.

This brings us to 2008. By this point, let’s assume that Nadal has earned roughly $10 million from his Nike partnership. When Rafael extended the partnership in 2008, his new deal was reportedly worth $100 million over ten years. Finally, in 2018, he renewed the contract with a five-year, $50 million deal, effectively still earning him $10 million per year.

Based on the information above, Nadal’s relationship with Nike earned him roughly $160 million. At the peak of his career, the endorsement deal accounted for approximately 25% of his overall annual income.

Additional Endorsement Deals

In addition to Nike, Nadal secured lucrative endorsement deals with more than a dozen brands, including:

• Babolat
• Banco Sabadell
• Cantabria Labs
• Heineken
• Kia Motors
• LVMH
• Richard Mille
• Santander
• Subway
• Telefonica
• Tommy Hilfiger

Among them, his partnership with Richard Mille is highly regarded as the most notable. Rafa developed several signature watches with the company, and this isn’t just any old watchmaker. The “Richard Mille RM35-02 Blue Quartz” now sells for approximately $500,000, and the “RM35-02 Red Rafael Nadal” fetches up to $250,000. These are just two of the signature models he worked on with the brand. In total, ten “Rafael Nadal” Richard Mille watches were released.

Rafa Nadal Academy

In 2016, the sports star opened Rafa Nadal Academy in his hometown of Manacor, Mallorca. The tennis player owns the 40,000 m² Sports Center, where the Academy is located and where the player trains. There are 26 tennis courts on the whole territory.

To join the Rafael Nadal Academy in Mallorca as a junior athlete, an annual fee of $62,000 is required. Thanks to a unique training system, athletes can hone their tennis skills under the guidance of a team of experienced coaches led by Toni Nadal. Located just 30 minutes from Palma de Mallorca Airport and 10 minutes away from the coast, the Rafa Nadal Academy cannot help but attract athletes.

Apart from Spain, Rafa also opened similar academies in Mexico (the Rafa Nadal Tennis Center Mexico), Al Zahra, Kuwait (the Rafa Nadal Academy Kuwait), Chalkidiki, Greece (the Rafa Nadal Tennis Center Greece), and Cancún, Mexico (the Rafa Nadal Tennis Center Mexico).

Rafael Nadal’s logo is one of the most recognized in the world, referencing his nickname, ‘the raging bull,’ with a stylized bull.

Rafael Nadal Foundation

In 2010, Rafael Nadal established the Rafa Nadal Foundation, a result of his and his mother Ana María’s desire to contribute to a better world. The foundation is currently located in Palma, Valencia, and Madrid.

Rafa Nadal Foundation frequently aids those in need, especially in Spain. For instance, together with Pau Gasol, Rafael helped raise more than €14 million to assist people affected by the deadly virus. Additionally, the Rafa Nadal Foundation supported the Food Bank of Mallorca in its efforts to provide food to those in need. Thus, they collected 3,000 kg of food to help 25,000 individuals in Mallorca.

In 2018, after floods devastated his native Mallorca, Rafael Nadal donated €1 million to help those affected by the natural disaster. Moreover, he opened the doors of his Academy to house the people.

Introduction

Hayden Panettiere was an American professional actress, model, and singer with an estimated net worth of $15 Million.

In her three-decade-long career, Panettiere starred in 26 television shows, 25 films, 10 video games, and several music videos. However, she was best known for starring in hit shows like Nashville and Heroes, which earned her most of her award nominations and wins. It’s also believed that Panettiere’s wealth was primarily derived from said shows, particularly Nashville, which became the most notable role of her career.

In this profile, we’ll outline our extensive research into Hayden Panettiere’s net worth, earnings from Nashville, and the estate she left behind.

Quick Facts

• Earned $75,000 per episode from starring in Nashville
• Grossed $1.7+ billion in global box office revenues
• Sold her 3,120-square-foot Los Angeles home for $3.1 million (2014)

Nashville Salary

Several reports have suggested that Hayden Panettiere earned $75,000 per episode for starring in the television show Nashville. However, this figure has not been confirmed because no timeline has been provided. Since Nashville aired for six seasons between 2012 and 2016 and faced budget issues after season four, it’s unlikely her salary remained constant throughout the show’s run.

If, for some reason, she did earn that exact figure for every episode she appeared in, 124 in total, Panettiere would have earned approximately $9.3 million from all six seasons.

Additional Income Sources

Unfortunately for us, Hayden Panettiere’s only reported salary as a professional actress was from Nashville. Nothing else has ever been discussed in the media regarding her earnings. However, Nashville accounts for just one of the more than 70 projects that Panatierre has worked on throughout her career.

She also appeared in numerous hit films, several of which grossed over $100 million at the worldwide box office, which we’ll get to shortly. Her extended film roles include A Bug’s Life (1998), Remember the Titans (2000), Scream 4 (2011), and Scream VI (2023).

As for television, three shows stand out in particular outside of Nashville. These include One Life to Live in the mid-1990s, Guiding Light in the late 1990s, and Heroes in the late 2000s.

Highest-Grossing Movies

Here’s a complete list of Hayden Panettiere’s ten highest-grossing films:

1. A Bug’s Life – $363 Million (1998)
2. Dinosaur – $350 Million (2000)
3. Scream VI – $169 Million (2023)
4. Scream – $138 Million (2022)
5. Bridge to Terabithia – $138 Million (2007)
6. Remember the Titans – $137 Million (2000)
7. Message in a Bottle – $119 Million (1999)
8. Scream 4 – $97 Million (2011)
9. Racing Stripes – $91 Million (2005)
10. Alpha and Omega – $51 Million (2010)

Real Estate

In March 2008, Hayden Panettiere purchased a 3,120-square-foot, two-bedroom home in Los Angeles, California, for $2.635 million. She sold this property for $3.075 million in February 2014, and it appears to have undergone significant renovation since then. The home recently sold for $13.5 million in July 2024.

Philanthropy

Panettiere supported various charities, including the African Wildlife Foundation, the American Foundation for Equal Rights, Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Candie’s Foundation, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Declare Yourself, Easter Seals, Elton John AIDS Foundation, and K9 Connection. 

Death & Estate

On August 16, 2026, Panettiere was found unresponsive at an apartment in Greenville, South Carolina. EMS had been responding to reports of a cardiac arrest, and after arriving at the location, attempted to resuscitate Panettiere, but their efforts were unsuccessful. She was just 36 years old. At the time of writing, there has been no official confirmation of the cause of death, but evidence suggests signs of a possible overdose.

It is likely that the actress’ estate will be left to her eleven-year-old daughter, Kaya Evdokia Klitschko, whose father is former professional boxer Wladimir Klitschko. However, at this time it’s unknown whether Hayden had organized a will in the event of her death.
