The US Open gets underway in New York Monday\u2014and the fourth and final Grand Slam tournament of the year is, in many ways, the biggest.<\/p>\n

Wimbledon might have more name recognition\u2014and maybe even more prestige among some fans\u2014but when it comes to cash in pocket for the highest profile winners, Queens is the place to be.<\/p>\n

The US Open has the highest individual prize money of all four of the Grand Slams this year. Players will be competing for a share of a $75 million purse. That\u2019s 15% higher than last year. Who earns what and how does it compare to other Grand Slams? Here\u2019s how it shakes out.<\/p>\n

All players who advance to higher rounds will see larger payoffs, though. Reaching the first round of the Main Draw will pay $100,000 for the first time, a 23% jump over the 2023 amount. Semifinalists will walk away with $1 million, while quarterfinalists will earn $530,000.<\/p>\n

How much do the US Open doubles champions earn?<\/h2>\n

Men\u2019s and women\u2019s doubles champions will receive $750,000, which will be split between the team. That\u2019s a 7% increase over 2023.<\/p>\n

How much do the US Open mixed doubles champions earn?<\/h2>\n
