Brisbane International Prize Money
2026 Breakdown & Historicals
One of two ATP and WTA tournaments held in Australia leading up to the year’s first major, the Brisbane International takes place annually in Brisbane, Queensland, on the picturesque Gold Coast.
Founded in 2009, the tournament has enjoyed a 23-year history. To date, Lleyton Hewitt is the only Australian to have won the singles event, which he accomplished in 2015 by defeating Roger Federer in three sets.
As a minor outdoor tournament played on hard courts, it doesn’t boast the most impressive purse. However, the event’s prize money hit an all-time high of $800,045 for the men and $1,691,602 for the women, equating to 10% and 11% increases, respectively, since the last time the tournament ran.
On the men’s side, the tournament’s singles champion will pocket $114,060, and the runner-up will claim a check for $66,555, a 17.6% bump for the winner and his opponent.
The champ will take home $214,530 on the ladies’ side, while the runner-up will earn $134,600. These figures are an 11.5% increase over the tournament’s prior run.
If you’re curious, the men’s prize money is significantly lower because the tournament is ATP 250 vs. WTA 500.
This guide provides fans with a detailed overview and complete breakdown of the Brisbane International’s prize money and historical data for reference and quick comparison.
Full Breakdown
Singles is the Brisbane International’s main event. The ATP features a 32-player draw, compared to 24 teams for doubles, while the WTA has a 64-player singles draw and 32 teams for doubles.
As a result, organizers distribute prize money accordingly, with roughly 80% of the purse supporting singles and the remaining 20% going to doubles.
However, beyond the singles and doubles events, we can break down prize money by round to better understand earnings, with players earning more the further they progress. The following table summarizes this data over the years.
For your convenience, I’ve also converted prize money to euros and Sterling Pound, calculated using the prior year’s exchange rate on the day of the final for a close approximation of value.

Prize Money by Year
Every year, the organizers of the Brisbane International tournament set the prize money, which is heavily influenced by the event’s revenue.
Some of the biggest revenue drivers include ticket sales, sponsorships, merchandise, and concessions. As these change, so do the available funds for prize money.
Since 2009, the prize money has increased or remained flat every year except 2010, 2015, and 2016 on the men’s side, so it has a decent track record of steady growth and success.
The following table outlines the yearly prize money for the Brisbane International since 2009. Compared to the first year, prize money is up 85% for the ATP and 760% for the WTA. The latter saw the most significant jump, as the event was bumped from the 250 tier to the 500 tier in 2012.
