The prize fund for this year's Australian Open has been increased by 16% to AUD$111.5 million (€64m), making it the largest purse in the tournament's history, organisers announced on Tuesday.

The two singles champions will each pocket AUD$4.15m (€2.3M), up from the AUD$3.5m (€2m) which Jannik Sinner and Madison Keys took home last year.
