The ATP Finals in Turin, which will take place from November 13th to 20th, will have a total prize money of 14.75 million US dollars. That means 103% of last year's prize money. The winner gets a total of 4,740,300 US dollars. This is the record for the highest prize money ever awarded in a tennis tournament. There will be three matches at the finals where players can win more than $1 million. The two semi-finals are worth $1.07 million and the final is worth $2,200,400. In doubles, the winning duo can net $930,300.

contender for the title

Carlos Alcaraz, Rafael Nadal, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Casper Ruud have already qualified for the unofficial tennis world championship. Medvedev, Rublev, Auger-Aliassime and Fritz are fifth through eighth in the Race to Turin. The tournament will be held in Turin for the second time in 2022. Although Novak Djokovic is only tenth on the list of world ranking points earned this year, we will see the Serb at the final. With his Wimbledon victory, he was able to secure participation in connection with the won tournament in Astana.

imbalance between men and women

With these outrageously large sums, some may notice the disparity to the WTA tour. Although there is the same prize money for men and women in the Grand Slams, the difference in smaller tournaments is large. The Ukrainian player Marta Kostyuk drew attention to this at this year's WTA Tour 500 tournament in Berlin by comparing the prize money of Berlin and Halle. In the ATP tournament (also Tour 500 level), which is held at the same time as the women's tournament, a player wins more than one semi-finalist in the 2nd round.
