US Open price: how much Carlos Alcaraz or Casper Ruud will earn with victory
The $60.3m - around £52m - purse is the biggest ever at the US Open, and the men's and women's singles champions will each take home £2.2m ( $2.6 million). This means the winner between Alcaraz and Ruud will take home millions as well as their first major title.
However, the loser between the duo on Sunday night will be able to console themselves by collecting 1.1 million pounds ($1.3 million).
Alcaraz will face Ruud in Sunday's final, with world No. 1 status also on the line. The champion will replace Russian star Daniil Medvedev at the top of the standings after his fall in the round of 16.
