BMW Open prize money
The BMW Open put €2,561,110 up for 2026, an ATP 500 played on clay courts in Munich from 13 to 19 April. The singles champion took €478,935 and a player beaten in the first round €19,975.
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 €70,165 and not that plus every round beneath it. Add the six figures up as a ladder and the champion alone would be on €1,001,575, against the €478,935 the tournament actually pays.

The €478,935 for winning it is the biggest line in the tournament, and it goes to one player. The first round is the next, 16 players on €19,975 each for €319,600. That is the opposite of a major, where the round that costs the most is the one everybody loses in.
