National Bank Open prize money
The National Bank Open is two tournaments in two cities, the men in Montreal and the women in Toronto, and they are not paid the same. The men played for $9,415,724 and the women for $7,433,076, so the men's champion took $1,151,420 and the women's $1,085,220.
A player is paid once, for the round they went out in. The figure is the whole of it rather than a step on the way to it, so somebody who lost in the last eight took $193,645 and not that plus every round beneath it. Add the eight figures up as a ladder and the champion alone would be on $2,525,625, against the $1,151,420 the ATP and the WTA actually pays.

What each round took between them
The figure above multiplied by the players in the round, across the draw
Second round is the biggest line in the tournament at $1,155,520, and it is 32 players on $36,110 each rather than one on $1,151,420. That is the shape a rate card hides: the further down the draw a round sits, the more people it pays and the more it costs.

What the fund adds up to
The National Bank Open announced $16,848,800. The draws on this page account for $16,106,366 of it, and we do not hold the remaining $742,434 round by round. Every figure above is a rate that was paid: what one player in that round was handed.
- The women's fund is $1,982,648 short of the men's, and the tournament is contracted to close that gap to nothing in 2027.
- The gap is widest at the bottom of the draw, not the top. A men's champion is paid 6 per cent more than a women's; a man beaten in the first round is paid 32 per cent more than a woman beaten in hers.
- Both events are 96-player draws, so both champions win seven matches for the money.
