A city that breathes sport like the Big Apple will be transformed, for two weeks, into the great tennis stage, with 14 courts where the players will show all their talent.
The Grand Slam will begin on Monday with the first-round matches of the singles main draws, and will end on Sunday, September 11, with the men’s singles final and the definition of the women’s doubles.
The US Open 2022 will close the Grand Slams season and will do it in a big way, with a record prize for tennis. The event in New York will disburse more than 60 million dollars, which means an increase of almost 5% compared to 2021, the year in which the tournament was not open at 100% capacity. The champions of the US Open 2022, both in the men’s and women’s branches, will receive 2,600,000 dollars. Taxes must be deducted from this prize, which is higher than that awarded by the other three Majors.
Rafael Nadal, for having consecrated himself at the Australian Open, took US$2,071,064, while the Spaniard, who repeated at Roland Garros, added US$2,290,354.
In the case of Novak Djokovic, who was the winner of Wimbledon 2022 (a tournament that did not award points due to his refusal to allow Russian and Belarusian tennis players to participate), he pocketed $2,507,460.
The prizes: Men’s and Women’s Individual: Winner, US$2,600,000; Finalist, $1,300,000; Semifinals, $705,000; 4th. final, US$445,000; 4th round, $278,000; 3rd. round, $188,000; 2nd round, $121,000; 1st. round, $80,000.
