2024 Breakdown & Historicals
Back for the first time since 2002, the Hong Kong Tennis Open, takes place at the Victoria Park Tennis Centre in Hong Kong, China. It’s one of 38 ATP 250 tournaments and, for 2024, offers a prize purse of $661,585, equivalent to €603,100 and £519,307.
The Thailand Open succeeded the Hong Kong Open in 2002, which then moved to Shenzhen in 2014, so the tournament has come full circle, returning to its original location.
In 2024, the singles champion will take home $100,640, and the runner-up will earn a healthy $58,705, representing a 95% increase for both players since 2002.
For doubles, the earnings are significantly less, with the winning doubles pair splitting $35,000 and the runner-ups sharing $18,800 in prize money.

Prize Money by Year
Every year, prize money changes at the Hong Kong Tenis Open. This year, we’re seeing a huge leap in prize money mainly because the tournament hasn’t run since 2002, but it is possible for the purse to stay the same or decline for some years.
Primary revenue sources for tennis tournaments include ticket sales, sponsorships, merchandise, and concessions, so when capacity is limited or the event is slower, prize money often drops.
The following table outlines the yearly prize money offered at the Hong Kong Tennis Open since 1990, which has seen several increases in recent years leading up to the pandemic.
