US Open Prize Money 2022

The 2022 US Open prize money has topped $60 million for the first time, topping the record-breaking $57.5 million figure from 2021.

The total prize money pool for 2022 stands at $60,102,000, the highest amount ever offered and an increase of 4.59% compared to 2021.

The champion in New York will receive a cheque for $2,600,000, 4% more than Daniil Medvedev and Emma Radacanu received last year when they both lifted their maiden Grand Slam titles.

The runner-up will also receive 4% more than in 2021, with $1,300,000 heading their way after the final.

All of the main draw rounds see similar increases compared to twelve months ago, with first-round losers bagging themselves $80,000, 6.67% more than 2021.

In men’s and women’s doubles, the champions will each split a cheque for $688,000, up 4.24%, vs 2021.

In addition to the main draw prize money, the USTA has apportioned over $6 million towards the qualifying draw, a 223% increase from 2016.

The USTA arrived at the increased qualifying prize money numbers after conferring with the WTA and ATP Player Councils, with a focus on increasing winnings for players competing in earlier rounds. The USTA
