Australian Open 2025: Updated Prize Money Payouts for Melbourne Bracket

Jannik Sinner defeated Alexander Zverev 6-3, 7-6(4), 6-3, in the Australian Open final, becoming the first repeat men's champion since Novak Djokovic (2020-2021).

The top-ranked Italian has dominated the rest of the tour, particularly on the hard-court surface over the last year, where he has won 53 of his last 56 matches.

For his efforts, Sinner takes home $3,500,000—up more than $1,000,000 from a year ago. Meanwhile, Zverev takes home $1,900,000 after reaching his first Australian Open.

Sinner's win over Zverev was never in question. The World No. 1 was extremely effective from his first serve, where he won 84 percent of points while remaining ultra-consistent with just 27 unforced errors.

Sinner joins 29-year-old Madison Keys, the champion in the women's singles draw, who also takes home $3,500,000, while the runner-up, Aryna Sabalenka, takes home $1,900,000.

Sabalenka entered the final as the overwhelming favorite, looking to become just the seventh woman in the Open Era to win three consecutive Australian Open titles.

However, it was Keys who stunningly triumphed in three sets, winning her maiden Grand Slam—nearly eight years removed from reaching the U.S. Open Final (2017).

Both Sinner and Keys will look to extend their dominant start to the 2025 season when the French Open rolls around on May 25.
