Shanghai Masters prize money
Shanghai paid $9,193,540 in 2025, and the final was between two first cousins. Valentin Vacherot beat Arthur Rinderknech for $1,124,380, and the two of them left China with $1,722,270 between them.
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 $189,075 and not that plus every round beneath it. Add the eight figures up as a ladder and the champion alone would be on $2,466,150, against the $1,124,380 the ATP 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 $1,128,320, and it is 32 players on $35,260 each rather than one on $1,124,380. 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.
