We could legitimately think that the coronavirus crisis would impact the 2021 Australian Open prize money. However, the amount of winnings distributed to participants has not been revised downwards for this new edition. As in 2020, all the participants in the Australian Grand Slam will share the nice jackpot of 71 million euros.

The prize money in 2021 is unchanged, but its distribution is modified to help the lower ranked players on the circuit. Only the endowments granted to the finalists and semi-finalists were revised downwards. At the same time, players eliminated before the quarter-finals see their winnings increase. Goal ? Help the lowest ranked players on the circuit. This logic also applies for doubles. The 2021 Australian Open can be followed in full on Eurosport.
