Our ranking of the top-paid tennis stars looks at prize money, appearance fees, endorsements and bonuses in the 12-months leading up to this year's U.S. Open. Most players have clauses in their endorsement contracts, particularly with shoe, clothing and racket makers, that include bonuses based on year-end rankings and for tournaments won.
