Indian Wells Prize Money
2024 Breakdown & Historicals
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 2024, the total prize money on offer at the BNP Paribas Open is $17,991,110, which equates to €16,598,868 and £14,209,739 for a 2% bump compared to 2023 and a record high for the event.
In 2012, the tournament began offering equal prize money to men and women, which means for 2024, the purse is $8,995,555 for both ATP and WTA players.
The singles champions at Indian Wells will earn an impressive $8,995,555 for winning the tournament, while the runner-ups will each make roughly half of that or $585,000. That’s a -12.85% decline for the singles champions and a -11.68% drop for the doubles champions compared to last year, stemming from the fact that organizers are increasing prize amounts for earlier rounds and the qualifying tournament.
The winning doubles teams will split a check for $447,300, while the runner-up pairs will share $236,800. Similar to singles, these figures are 2.4% and 2.2% increases year over year.

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.

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%.
