Aryna Sabalenka, born on May 5, 1998, is one of the best tennis players in the world today. The powerhouse Belarusian is a former World No. 1 in both singles and doubles with three Grand Slam titles to her name: two at the Australian Open (2023, 2024) and one at the US Open (2024). When it comes to her achievements in doubles, she’s teamed up with Elise Mertens to win the 2019 US Open and 2021 Australian Open, bringing her total career titles to 22 (16 singles, 6 doubles).
Sabalenka is known for an aggressive game, with a booming serve that can be both a blessing and a curse, leading to lots of winners—and sometimes a few too many unforced errors. She initially made her mark in 2017 when she and Aliaksandra Sasnovich led Belarus to a surprising Fed Cup runner-up finish. By 2019, she’d cracked the top 11 in singles.
Though she hit a rough patch in 2022 after peaking at No. 2 in 2021, she bounced back in 2023 with her first major singles title and reclaimed the No. 1 ranking. Sabalenka’s doubles journey, also impressive, saw her complete the Sunshine Double with Mertens in 2019, and her 2021 Aussie Open win made her the top doubles player.
Following her third Grand Slam title at the US Open this year, fans have been curious to learn the details of the prize money and her overall net worth in 2024, in addition to the inspiring journey in her personal life. One particular curiosity surrounds the alluring watch on her left wrist that was prominently visible in the post-match celebrations and photoshoots.
Aryna Sabalenka’s Net Worth Soared After Her 2024 US Open Victory
As of August 26, 2024, Aryna Sabalenka’s career earnings were reported to be $24,761,708. With her recent win at the 2024 US Open, adding the $3.6 million prize money, her total career earnings stand at around $28.36 million.
When it comes to sponsorships, Sabalenka has had Nike for clothing and footwear since the start of her professional journey. From the 2023 US Open onward, Nike has created personalized outfits for her. Additionally, her endorsement comes from Wilson, and she plays with racquets from the Wilson Blade series.
Top tennis players with big endorsements like Nike and Wilson usually make between $1 million and $5 million a year from these deals. Since Sabalenka is one of the best women’s tennis stars in the world today, it’s reasonable to assume she’s making closer to the higher end of that range with her sponsorships. As for her residence, the 26-year-old lives in Miami, Florida, but the details of her house are not well-known.
As of 2024, Aryna Sabalaneka’s net worth is estimated to be in the range of $20 million to $25 million.

The Belarusian Star Secured Third Grand Slam Title at the 2024 US Open
Aryna Sabalenka clinched her third Grand Slam title at the 2024 US Open with a straight-sets victory over Jessica Pegula, winning 7-5, 7-5. This was one of the most satisfying victories of her career as she had tough losses in this competition in recent years, including a runner-up finish in 2023.
Sabalenka brought her absolute best performance, mixing power with some strategic shots, helping her edge past Pegula in the final, played under a closed roof at Arthur Ashe Stadium. Following her victory, she touched on her inspiring journey, mentioning how losing her dad five years ago and other rough patches in her personal life put fire in her belly to succeed.
The 26-year-old thanked the crowd for their love and support, which was a nice change from last year when she could not live with the intense pressure after getting unsettled by the intimating crowd at Arthur Ashe. She went on to blow a set advantage to lose against the American Coco Gauff. This year, even though Pegula came in hot with a five-game streak in the second set, Sabalenka kept her cool and turned things around.
Aryna Sabalenka even joked about celebrating with her coach, comparing their trophies and hinting at some hangovers to come. As for Pegula, she put up a solid fight in her first major final but admitted that Sabalenka just nailed the key moments.
