The ATP Barcelona Open will see one of the biggest names in tennis dawn upon Barcelona. With defending champion and World No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz and last year’s runner-up Stefanos Tsitsipas in attendance, the tournament is going to be a star-studded affair.  The top pros will fight it out for valuable ranking points and prize money which has seen a negligible increase of 0.22 percent.

Started in 1953, the 71st edition of the tournament will be played at the historical clay courts of Reial Club de Tenis Barcelona. Apart from the ranking points the players will vie for a total prize pool of $2,990,735.  Let’s have a detailed look at the prize money breakdown, the winner’s payout, and the schedule for the ATP 500 tournament.

The total prize pool of the tournament is $2,990,735, per the current Euro to USD conversion value, virtually identical to last year’s. The champion will take home $525,131 for his triumph and the runner-up will take home $280,061 for his deep run. Here is the detailed prize money breakdown:

The doubles-winning team will split a total reward of $183,734 with the runner-ups taking $98,011 home. The doubles semi-finalists will bag $49,591 and the quarter-finalists will have $24,790 to their name. Participation in Round of 16 will see a pair pocket of $12,836.

The earnings for all the positions are identical to last year’s. The only visible difference is that there is no prize money for the qualifying rounds. This new bifurcation might be an effort from the organizers to enable the lesser-known talents to push harder to reach more advanced stages of the tournament.

In addition to the prize money, the players will also be competing for ranking points.
