The US Open is again shattering the record for the largest prize pool in tennis history. The 2025 edition of the tournament features $90 million in total money up for grabs, a 20% increase from the $75 million pool for the 2024 tournament.
The $90 million figure places the US Open well ahead of the prize pools for the three other Grand Slam events.
Singles winners will take home $5 million, while winning doubles teams will make $1 million.
Last year’s singles winners, Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka, made $3.6 million for their victories.
The US Open kicks off on Aug. 19 with the mixed doubles tournament. This year’s format has fulfilled the USTA’s goal of attracting top singles players to play mixed doubles, with 14 teams currently confirmed for the field. As with the men’s and women’s doubles prize pools, the winning team in the mixed doubles will make $1 million.
