The fans on social media go insane over Jannik Sinner's huge prize money after winning the 6 Kings Slam exhibition in Riyadh. The World number 1 earns $6 million in three games which is the biggest prize money in the entire season. Can the Grand Slam tournaments live up to the standards of this event in the future?
The Six Kings Slam was a successful exhibition featuring the old and the new generation stars in the tournament, which was finally won by current World number 1 Jannik Sinner. Carlos Alcaraz faced defeat after being one set down in the match. This was another impressive performance by the Italian sensation where he not only won the title but bagged the biggest prize money of the season.

The prize money makes social media go wild
There is no doubt that the Grand Slam events are supposed to be the tournaments where the players win some big money, however, the prize money of 6 million won by Sinner is something that has got everybody talking. The fact that Sinner has earned more money in the 3 matches than any of his successful Grand Slam campaigns in New York and Melbourne has become the biggest trending topic in the tennis world. There have been a lot of comments that display the shock of the fans in how a normal exhibition tournament can make more money than an entire Grand Slam event.

This currently puts Sinner in the record books once again where he has made the most money in a season than any player in the ATP season. There will be a mixed response from the people, but all we can do is admire the incredible performance of the Italian sensation dominating the game right now. Sinner is currently the best player in the World this season and we hope he keeps giving us iconic performances like this.

I thought slams pay more than that
His prize money in Six Kings Slam is almost half of what Nick Kyrgios made in his entire career.
