Wimbledon organizers have announced a 20% increase in the prize money for the upcoming Grand Slam tournament, bringing the total pool to 64.2 million pounds (approximately Rs 821 crore). Singles winners will now receive 3.6 million pounds (Rs 46 crore) compared to last year's 3 million pounds. This decision follows long-standing demands from players for a fairer share of the revenue, with some even threatening to boycott the event. The move aims to address player grievances regarding the distribution of the tournament's earnings. https://sambad.in/sports/wimbledon-2026-prize-money-increased-record-reward-for-champions-12028169 #creator program
