Winners of the US Open in men’s and women’s singles will receive three million dollars, losers – 1.5 million dollars, according to the tournament website.
The price and amount of compensation will reach a record $65 million. Compared to last year, the amount increased by 8%, it was 60 million in 2022. Men’s and women’s doubles champions will earn 700,000 per team.
“The increase in player awards this year is of particular significance as the US Open celebrates 50 years of equal prize money. In 1973, this tournament became the first of four Grand Slam tournaments to have the same prize money for both men and women, according to the report.
Also, “an attempt has been made to provide more substantial assistance to all participants in the competition by introducing additional compensation for player costs”. The US Open will introduce $1,000 travel vouchers. In addition, the organizers will increase payments to tennis players for meals.
The US Open will take place from August 28 to September 10.
