The total prize money purse stands at $90 million – the highest amount ever distributed via a tennis tournament – which marks a 20 per cent rise from last year's $75m pot.

Men's and women's singles champions will rake in a record payday with a cool $5m allocated for each of them, a 39 per cent year-on-year jump.

The breakout mixed doubles tournament caused waves with a bumper $1m pot set aside for a host of high-profile players to jostle over, at the cost of doubles specialists being given a chance to shine.
