How Wimbledon earned $61 million in 2022

• Wimbledon 2022 raked in an estimated £50 million in 2022
• The Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) received just over £43 million
• LTA then got a $5 million grant

Wimbledon 2022 raked in an estimated £50 million ($61 million) to British tennis.

The Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) received just over £43 million from the Championships in 2022, in addition to a $5 million grant to help other grass court events.

LTA published these findings on Wednesday.  The LTA’s study shows that more people are participating in the sport. According to reports, participation among people aged 16 to 34 has increased by 48%.

Most countries will continue to look on with envy at the size of the governing body and its budget in light of these figures.

The LTA has 326 employees, with total costs of £22.7 million, according to average monthly employee data. Chief Executive Scott Lloyd has the highest salary of £572,000 among the directors.

Meanwhile, Ukranian tennis players can heave a sigh of relief after Wimbledon extended a gesture of goodwill by providing them with two complimentary hotel rooms.

They will stay here until the end of the tournament. This gesture is meant to show solidarity with Ukraine after All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC) was boxed into a corner to allow Russian and Belarusian players to play this year.

In addition to inviting Ukrainian refugees who are based nearby in the SW19 region, more than £500,000 will be donated to relief organisations.

The event, which starts on July 3, has received confirmation from the All England Club of a number of additional, diverse adjustments.

Roger Federer will hold a one-time celebration to honour his retirement, and he may still be available to do sporadic BBC broadcasting.

Men’s doubles matches will be reduced to three sets, in line with recent Grand Slams, however, this change will be more long-lasting. The wearing of darker-coloured undergarments by female players has also been confirmed.

The controversial and longstanding Wimbledon dress code is on its deathbed as certain divisive rules fizzle away this season. Female tennis players can now wear dark undergarments contrary to long-held traditions of white knickers only.

This came about as a result of tennis players who were still competing and those who had retired trying to get the organisers to reverse course.

It is customary for Wimbledon competitors to wear all-white clothes since it hides any potential perspiration. The all-white theme, which is appropriate given that Britons are famed for their purist ways, dates back to the Victorian era when sweating was considered impolite.

All competitors participate in the unmistakable all-white uniform, a tradition that has survived from the Victorian era to the present. On both the men’s and women’s sides of the draws, this contains bras and undergarments
