The Australian Open will offer a record prize pot for players to win in 2024, with significant increases throughout the rounds compared to previous editions.

A grand total of $86.5m AUD (£45.5m) will be shared out across the tournament with the winner to pocket a healthy $3.15m AUD (£1.7m) for their exploits.

Men’s and women’s singles prize money will be equal once again in 2024, and players who exit their respective tournaments in the early stages will receive a higher proportional rise compared to 2023.

A first-round exit will earn players $120,000 AUD (£63k) – a 13% rise year-on-year – with similar increases for those who are eliminated prior to the quarter-finals.

Players will generally compete for glory and ranking points above all, but a healthy payday sounds like a solid way to kick-start the new year.
