While Pegula is yet to advance beyond a major quarter-final, her family wealth immensely boosts her net worth to stratospheric heights.<\/p>\n<p>As a 24-time Grand Slam champion, no man has ever won more major titles than Djokovic. Thanks to his stellar play on the court, Djokovic has earned over $170 million (\u00a3133m) in prize money and his net worth is significantly boosted by his army of lucrative endorsement deals.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Serb is the face of Asics and Lacoste, while he also has deals with Head, Hublot, Lemero, NetJets, Peugeot, Raiffeisen Bank International, and Ultimate Software Group. It leaves Djokovic with a net worth of $220 million (\u00a3172m), the same as his rival Nadal.<\/p>\n<p>The Spanish star &#8211; affectionately dubbed the \u2018King of Clay\u2019 thanks to his 14 French Open titles &#8211; has won many awards, including the Sportsmanship Award and five ATP Player of the Year awards amid a long-standing rivalry with Djokovic.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/72\/590x\/secondary\/5117307.jpg?r=1702648369371\"><\/p>\n<p>He was also named ITF World Champion five times and won the Laureus World Sportsman of the Year twice. Nadal has sponsorship deals with Kia Motors, which has sponsored him since 2006, as well as Nike which tailor specific clothing for the 37-year-old.<\/p>\n<p>As well as endorsements with Lanvin colognes, Quely, Emporio Armani, and PokerStars, Nadal has earned $135 million (\u00a3105m) in prize winnings from his on-court performances. It leaves him with a net worth of $220 million (\u00a3172) alongside Djokovic, yet neither sporting icon can compare to Pegula.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With an estimated net worth of $6.7 billion (\u00a35.8bn), Pegula is the richest tennis player in the world. The 28-year-old hails from Buffalo, New York, and is the daughter of Terry Pegula, the world\u2019s 377th richest person.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/72\/590x\/secondary\/5117309.jpg?r=1702648369423\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p>Terry made a fortune in oil and gas and turned it into a multi-million-dollar sports empire.
