Australian Open 2024, how much do you win? The prize pool revealed

After the record Wimbledon 2023, the Australian Open prize pool is the new reference for mind-boggling prizes.
In fact, the prize money rises by 13 percent, making it the second richest Slam tournament ever.
Over 53 million euros will be distributed, a good 2 million euros more than the already set record of Wimbledon 2023.
Only the last edition of the Australian Open is richer than the current prize pool, when the players earned (distributed) almost 59 million euros.
The Slam now represents not only a tennis competition, but also an internal competition with a higher prize pool than the previous one.
The 2024 edition is no exception and indeed allows all participants to earn up to 20 percent more even for those who exit in the first round of the qualifiers.
In fact, the percentages of awarding prizes have changed, with the central groups penalized compared to the first groups and the final.
Let's find out together how much the record prize money of the Australian Open (2024 edition) is and how much the individual winners of each phase of the round get.
In some cases the players will earn as much as a company manager in a year, in the luckiest (and most deserving) of cases the prize money is equal to the one-year salary of a Serie A footballer.
