If the stakes weren't already high for the 2024 US Open, defending event champions Coco Gauff and Novak Djokovic headline a field that will play for a record $75 million in total compensation at the final Grand Slam tennis tournament of the year. The raise is about 15% from the 2023 event and is the largest purse in tennis history, according to the USTA.

The full compensation puts the US Open ahead of tennis's other three major championships in 2024. Based on currency exchange rates at the times of the events, Wimbledon offered about $64 million in prizes, while the French Open and Australian Open offered about $58 million apiece.

The 2024 US Open men's and women's singles champions will each receive $3.6 million.
