The Australian Open singles champions will each take home £1.75m (AU$3.5m) in 2025 with the total prize money for the grand slam increasing by 12 per cent from last year.
Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka are the defending champions and stand as favourites among the 128-player fields for both the men’s and women’s singles competition.
The total prize pool including singles, doubles and mixed doubles now stands at around £48.5m (AU$96.5m).
There has also been an increase for the early rounds from last year, with players who reach the main draw earning £66,300 (AU$132,000) even if they do not progress beyond the first round.
