Barbora Krejčíková’s net worth

Wimbledon, one of the most hallowed venues in tennis, will have a new queen in 2024 in Barbora Krejčíková. The ‘unlikely champion’, as many call her, defeated seventh-seeded Jasmine Paolini on July 13 to take the coveted title.

This latest addition to the ‘David vs Goliath’ tennis saga further underscored the high standard of competition seen in women’s tennis. While the men’s game has been dominated by a handful of players in recent times, Krejčíková became the eighth women’s champion at Wimbledon in as many years.

Krejčíková’s victory also cemented the Czech Republic’s position as a breeding ground for some of the best talent in tennis society. She became the fifth Czech woman to win overall at the All England Club, after Martina Navratilova, Jana Novotná, Petra Kvitová and Markéta Vondroušová.

The victory gave Barbora Krejčíková’s position in the WTA rankings a significant boost. According to the latest data released on July 15, 2024, she was ranked 10th. Meanwhile, Iga Świątek remained at the top of the rankings even after her poor form at Wimbledon 2024, where she crashed out in the third round.

But it’s not just her ranking that made a big jump: the Czech tennis player earned a considerable amount of money by winning Wimbledon 2024. So, let’s take a look at Barbora Krejčíková’s net worth, salary, career earnings, house, cars, sponsors and more.
