Carlos Alcaraz's stellar 2025 season delivered more than trophies and unforgettable moments.
Two Majors and three Masters 1000 shields have propelled him into one of the most exclusive financial clubs in tennis history.
The 22-year-old added over $21 million in prize money between January and November 2025. Thus, the El Palmar native pushed his career earnings beyond the mind-blowing $60 million mark.

With that leap, Carlos became only the fifth player in history to reach that figure, joining Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and Andy Murray, the players who have defined modern tennis.
The numbers underline how rare this achievement is. While Alexander Zverev and Jannik Sinner will also reach it soon, it will be remembered that Alcaraz got there before them, and at much younger age.
Djokovic remains in a category of his own, nearing the $200 million mark ahead of 2026. Nadal and Federer follow at a considerable distance and at a striking similarity.
Miles behind them, Murray keeps the fourth place, but Alcaraz is already closing in fast. The young Spaniard should easily pass the Briton in the season ahead of us with a couple of big results.
What makes the milestone even more astonishing is the trajectory. Carlos has reached $60 million in prize money before even entering his physical prime. He required only four big seasons to get there, taking advantage of ongoing increasingofprize money.

The earnings reflect a broader reality - Alcaraz is no longer a rising star but a permanent fixture at the sport's summit. Each big title, and he stands on 14 ahead of 2026, accelerates his climb up the all-time lists, competitively and financially.
Carlos' latest achievement signals something clear - he is not simply chasing records anymore. Instead, the Spaniard shares space with the greatest names the sport has ever known.
After all, Alcaraz is the second-youngest six-time Major winner after Bjorn Borg. The 22-year-old enjoyed a career-best run in 2025. He claimed eight titles from 11 finals and reached nine straight title matches between April and October.
Carlos did enough to keep Jannik Sinner behind and deliver his second year-end no. 2 honor.
