World No. 1 Sinner, women's champion Sabalenka, and rising star Gauff, among other tennis stars, have issued a joint statement criticizing the prize money distribution at the French Open (Roland Garros). The players point out that while tournament revenues continue to grow, they have not received a corresponding share of the compensation. This is the latest development in the professional tennis circuit's recent dissatisfaction with the prize money structure at Grand Slam events.

Top tennis players including world No. 1 Jannik Sinner, women's champion Aryna Sabalenka, and rising star Coco Gauff have jointly issued a statement publicly criticizing the prize money distribution system at the French Open. They highlight that while tournament revenues continue to climb, players have not received a fair return on their contributions. This marks the latest development in the professional tennis circuit's growing discontent with Grand Slam prize money structures.
Three of the world's top-ranked players chose to voice their demands through a collective statement rather than individual remarks, indicating a high degree of consensus on the issue. The statement emphasizes that as the tournament's core asset, players are not sharing proportionally in the event's growth, and calls on organizers to address the fairness of the prize money structure.
The statement adds fuel to the long-simmering prize money distribution conflict in professional tennis, potentially subjecting all Grand Slam events to greater pressure for reform.
