The US Us Blue Courts will give the green financial field.
UNTA announced today 2025 US Open will pay the largest price money in tennis history as the first tennis tour that offered $ 90m in total of player prices.
$ 90 million in player compensation is $ 15 million more than $ 75 million in total prices paid in 2024 US Open, representing a 20 percent increase.
The winners of the men’s and women’s single at the SH.BA will receive a $ 5 million sample check. This is a 39 percent increase of $ 3.6 million that reigns men’s champion Jannik Sinner and 2024 Women’s winner Aryna Sabalenka won in 2024 Flushing Meadows Major.
Only the Saudi Arabia exhibition Six Kings Slam, which paid the sinner a champion check for a $ 6 million tennis record last fall, exceeds the 2025 US Open champion bag.
In a press release notifying the 2025 pricing money, Usta requested a “increase in the double percentage by 2024 in all rounds of all events for all players”.
PTPA, led by Grand Slam King Novak Djokovic, has long argued players deserve a larger percentage of the Grand Slam pie.
