Jack Draper is enjoying an excellent run at the 2024 US Open, making it into his first career Grand Slam semi-final and securing a bumper payday.
Obviously, he will be aiming to reach the showpiece match and claim glory at Flushing Meadows, but his run to this point has already earned him a good chunk of money.

The 22-year-old is now into the semi-finals of the men’s singles, where he faces world number 1 Jannik Sinner.
Sporting glory will be his main motivation, but the chance of his net worth growing massively will also come if he can make the final.
Draper turned professional six years ago and has racked up a good amount of money from playing tennis.
Before the US Open started, he had acquired over £2million in prize money.
These finances were boosted by Draper winning the BOSS Open in Stuttgart in 2024 – his first ATP Tour victory.
Since the start of the US Open, Draper has significantly added to his fortune.
By reaching the semi-finals, he has claimed $1million (£759,881).
So, if he goes no further, he’s still boosted his net worth to well over £3m.
But should he reach the final, the minimum he would take would be £1.36m.

If he wins, his wealth would double overnight because he would be taking home £2.73m.
Of course, winning a Grand Slam is about more than just earning money, but no one can deny that Draper’s life would dramatically transform if he were to win the US Open.
Plus, after reaching the last four, he’s likely to see an influx of sponsorship deals that will boost his income in time.
Draper’s life away from the court is very private, so it’s currently unclear if he has a partner.
There is nothing on any of his social media accounts to suggest that he is seeing someone.
Draper’s dad, Roger, is a well-known figure in the sports industry.
He was the chief executive of Sport England from 2003 to 2006.
Roger Draper then transitioned to tennis and became the CEO of the Lawn Tennis Association until 2013.
While with the LTA, Draper is widely seen as being responsible for helping increase British Tennis memberships by 500 per cent.
He then moved on to rugby league with the Warrington Wolves and remained with the club for two years.
However, he’s no longer involved in sport and now works for the Boston Consulting Group as a global business advisor.
