It’s well known that American professional tennis player Emma Navarro is the daughter of business tycoon Ben Navarro, who has a staggering net worth of $1.5 billion as of 2024.
Despite coming from an affluent family, Emma chose to establish her individual identity on her own, which is why she got into tennis at an early age.
Once, while introducing herself to WTA, Emma talked about why she picked tennis for her career and said, “I love the individuality of it…..it’s always challenging physically and mentally and i think that gives me purpose of my life.”
She has been committed to tennis for the past 18 years, but her professional tennis carres began in 2019.
Five years in a row, Emma has already earned $2,921,787 as prize money, flaunting her tennis skills. This means her sole earnings to this date are about $3 million.
Is Emma Navarro already a billionaire at age 23?
Lately, Emma Navarro has been referred to as a billionaire 23-year-old tennis star. DailyMail reports that her net worth exceeds the combined fortune of tennis trio Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic, which is $550 million. But is it exact?
Well, analyzing the scenario, it doesn’t seem like Emma Navarro has a net worth in billions. At first, she is not the sole inheritor of her father Ben Navarro’s billions of property as she has three more siblings, Meggie, Earl, and Owen Navarro.
If her father, Ben Navarro, divides his property equally among all his children, then Emma might receive $375 million for her part. Her career earnings are also in the millions.
In such a case, it would be safe to consider Emma Navarro, a millionaire rather than a billionaire. However, the way Emma is taking her tennis career forward, it may not take long for her to achieve billionaire status.
