Roger Federer has built a massive fortune not only through tennis but also through smart investments and long-term endorsement deals. According to reports, he earned $130.6 million in prize money during his career, which represents only about 10% of his total wealth.
One of his most successful investments was in the Swiss sports brand On Running. Federer purchased around 3% of the company in 2019, and the brand is now valued at about $17 billion. His stake alone is worth roughly $500 million.
Federer also maintains partnerships with global companies such as Rolex, Mercedes-Benz, Lindt and Uniqlo, earning millions of dollars annually through these endorsement agreements.
