Quick answer

This list highlights five internationally known tennis players with established Instagram audiences. Follower counts change every day, so use the official profiles for current totals and compare engagement, audience location and content fit before treating reach as campaign value.

Top 5 Tennis Players on Instagram

Using the ClickAnalytic database of 400M+ creators, we tracked down the most followed tennis players on Instagram. The list still runs through the retired greats: Nadal, Serena Williams, Djokovic and Federer all outgrew their playing careers on social media and keep adding followers years after their last match. Sania Mirza is the one relatively new name to break into the top five since our last check.

Check their Instagram engagement rate to see which tennis star actually connects best with fans, since follower count alone does not tell the story.

Brands sponsoring athletes can use our Instagram fake follower checker to verify that celebrity follower bases are genuine.

Follower rankings change as players gain or lose audience. Check the official profiles in this list for current totals, then compare recent engagement rather than relying on one snapshot.
The current total is visible on Novak Djokovic’s official @djokernole profile and changes daily. For campaign planning, record the date and compare audience quality and recent interactions as well as followers.
Serena Williams and Sania Mirza currently have the largest audiences among female tennis players on Instagram, well ahead of other well-known names like Maria Sharapova, who retired from the tour in 2020. Use current official profile data to compare them fairly.
Start with audience country, age and interest fit. Then review recent sponsored posts, genuine comment quality, engagement consistency and whether the creator’s style suits the campaign.
