A Packed Stadium 1 at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden for the BNP Paribas Open

Indian Wells Prize Money

2023 Breakdown & Historicals

By Jon Crim
Image Credit: BNP Paribas Open

The BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells is one of nine annual ATP Masters 1000 and WTA 1000 tournaments known by fans as the fifth Grand Slam for its size, attendance, and lucrative prize money.

Hosted in Indian Wells, California, the tournament takes place at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden, which finished construction in 2000 and features 29 tennis courts, including Stadium 1, one of the largest in the world that seats 16,100 spectators.

For 2023, the total prize money on offer at the BNP Paribas Open is $17,600,000, which equates to €16,488,560 and £14,640,384 for a 5% bump compared to 2022 and a record high for the event.

In 2012, the tournament began offering equal prize money to men and women, which means for 2023, the purse is $8,800,000 for both ATP and WTA players.

The singles champions at Indian Wells will earn an impressive $1,262,220 for winning the tournament, while the runner-ups will each make roughly half of that or $662,360. Both amounts represent just over a 2.5% increase compared to last year.

The winning doubles teams will split a check for $436,730, while the pairs who finish runner-up will share $231,660. Similar to singles, these figures are 2.5% increases versus 2022.

The following sections provide a complete breakdown of prize money at Indian Wells for quick comparison. You’ll also find currency conversions from US dollars to the euro and sterling pound.

2023 Full Breakdown

The highest level breakdown of prize money at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells is by discipline, with singles receiving 80% of the purse and doubles 20%.

Prize money breaks down further by round, where players who make it deeper into the tournament earn more. For context, the men’s and women’s winners in singles will receive roughly 14% of the total ATP and WTA prize money, which is more than 67 times the amount a player gets if they lose in the first round.

The following tables break down prize money at Indian Wells by round since 2012. You can scroll left to right to view the entire data set. For a quick comparison, I’ve converted US dollars to euros and sterling pounds, which I calculate using the prior year’s exchange rate on the day of the final for a close approximation of value.

Prize Money by Year

Tournament organizers evaluate prize money yearly, which the tournament’s revenues heavily influence.

For example, in 2020, the BNP Paribas Open didn’t run due to the pandemic impacting key revenue drivers, including ticket sales, merchandise, and concessions. As a result, prize money remained flat from 2019 to 2021 after eight years of consecutive growth.

Aside from that exception, the tournament has done a fantastic job of steadily increasing prize money in recent years. Since 2009, prize money hasn’t declined, with total growth of 116%.
