The US Open is back and four the third-consecutive year Roger Federer will not be competing.
Federer hasn't played a single Grand Slam this year and earlier this summer it was the first Wimbledon tournament without the eight-time winner since 1998.
The Swiss native will be absent from the competition as he battles with a knee injury that has derailed his career in the last few years.
The 41-year-old's legacy is well and truly intact no matter what happens, with his net worth amongst one of the greatest that the sport of tennis has ever witnessed.
The Sporting News takes a look at how much money Federer has made from his incredible exploits in Grand Slam tournaments amongst others, alongside what his total net worth has amounted to over the years.
Roger Federer net worth
Incredibly, Roger Federer currently has a net worth of around $550 million (£448.3m) according to website Celebrity Net Worth, making him the second richest tennis player to ever exist after Ion Tiriac, who has made most of his money in business ventures post-retirement.
His status as arguably the greatest tennis player of all time in his peak has cemented this, despite the fact he has not played competitively since the 2021 Wimbledon quarter-finals, where he was defeated by Hubert Hurkacz in three sets.
This has seen the 41-year-old slip down the ATP world rankings, though it hasn't affected him from a financial standpoint due to his legendary status that has seen Federer pick up 20 Grand Slam titles from 31 finals, five of which came at the US Open.
