World's top tennis players call truce in prize-money battle with grand slams - The Guardian

Top US Open prize was $5.5 million per champion

Zverev and Rybakina each pocketed $5.5 million from the 2026 US Open. This represented the biggest payday for singles. The payout went out on Sept. 13. Both players won their finals that day. Zverev took the men's title. Rybakina captured the women's title.

The $5.5 million represented the event's top prize. Nobody else got a bigger check. Both winners got equal money. There existed no gap between men and women. Every check was identical. The tournament paid that amount to each winner.
