Andy Roddick recently shared details about his financial success following his victory at the 2003 US Open.
At 21, Roddick became the World No. 1 in November 2003 and held the position for 13 weeks before Roger Federer took over.
Throughout his career, Roddick earned over $20 million in prize money and won 32 Tour-level titles, ranking among the Top 40 ATP earners. He was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 2017.
Recently, the 41-year-old discussed his sponsorship deals with journalist Jon Wertheim, revealing how his earnings soared after winning the US Open in 2003.
“My base deal at 17 was $300,000 a year. After winning the US Open ’03, I earned 3-4 million based on incentives, which was less than what I later signed with Lacoste.”
After retiring from tennis in 2012, Roddick has been active as an analyst for Tennis Channel and hosts the podcast “Served with Andy Roddick.”
