According to the Associated Press, "Total prize money at the U.S. Open will top $20 million for the first time this year, with the men’s and women’s singles champions each earning a tournament-record $1.5 million... The overall payout of $20.6 million is $1 million more than in 2007, matching the largest single-year jump in the hard-court Grand Slam tournament’s history, the U.S. Tennis Association announced Tuesday."
So does that make this the richest tourney in all of tennis now?
