Guy's :) Do you know what is the rewards when players win a Masters 1000? And the rewards for the Grand Slams ?
ReplyDeleteThere is no fix amount of money, every tournament has their own price money awards.
DeleteThe Paris Masters 1000 and the Monte-Carlo Masters 1000 have the lowest price money: $2.2 Millions, to be shared between all participants based on their round qualification performance.
ATP World Tour Finals and the Indian Wells Masters 1000 have $4,5 Millions to be shared between all participants.
Grand Slams have a bigger price money award, with $2 Million just for the winner in the French Open, $2.4 Millions in Wimbledon and in the Australian Open and $3,3 Millions in the US Open.
Thank you for your answer :)
