And he shelled out $9 million on a state-of-the-art yacht, which was delivered in 2022.

The 35-meter Infinity Nine has six bedrooms and a 44-square-meter deck.

It was also designed with exploration in mind and is capable of sailing in polar seas.

Parker has been on the water since his early years, at his family home in Normandy, France.

He is passionate about diving and also keeps racehorses in his stable.

Parker chose the promising company AvA Yachts to produce the boat of his dreams.

“AvA wanted to compete with the big shipyards,” said Parker International Boat.

“That’s how I felt when I was in France and came to the US, so I recognized myself in that and wanted to give them a chance.

“My dream is to travel around the world and dedicate our time to it.”

Parker met his captain Arnaud De Battisti and chief steward Geraldine Galas 10 years ago when he was on holiday on a boat.

And he brought them as soon as he decided to build his own.

“I thought they were very disciplined and had a good reputation,” Parker added.

“And I said [them] ‘When I retire, I’d love for you to build my boat.’

“They thought I was crazy. They thought I would never follow through.”

Infinity Nine is available for charter at Zoo Yacht.

Parker is investing some of the fortune he amassed on the court into horse racing, and he’s making it pay off.

Mangoustine, a four-year-old filly that Parker bought for about $50,000, has been just one of his rising stars.

Money means little to Parker these days, he just wants success on the track and to enjoy it with his girlfriend Alize Lim.

Paris-born beauty Lim began making videos and interviewing other players before injuries effectively ended her tennis career.

She is now a broadcaster.
