The Wimbledon prize money breakdown has been released, and it includes a record prize pool of £53,500,000 ($72,868,070). The Ladies' and Gentlemen's singles winners will each receive £3,000,000 ($4,086,

The men's and women's singles champions will receive £3m as part of the biggest prize fund in Wimbledon history.

The total amount is 3.5 million pounds ($6.8 million) more than last year, an increase of 7% — and exactly twice the pot handed out to competitors at the grass-court Grand Slam 10 years ago.
