Adelaide International 2026: All you need to know about prize money and points on offer
The Adelaide International 2026 competition offers a massive prize pool of $700,045.
The Adelaide International 2026 returns as the final high-profile warm-up ahead of the Australian Open, running from January 12 to 17 as a combined ATP 250 and WTA 500 event. However, several late withdrawals, including Novak Djokovic, Jessica Pegula, and Marta Kostyuk, have slightly altered the tournament’s build-up and reshaped the competitive landscape.
On the women’s side, Madison Keys steps into the spotlight as the top seed following the withdrawal of Pegula. She leads a strong draw featuring in-form contenders like Mirra Andreeva, Paula Badosa, Clara Tauson, and Jelena Ostapenko, alongside a sizeable Australian contingent.
In the men’s draw, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina headlines the field after Djokovic, Jack Draper, and Joao Fonseca pulled out, with established names such as Tommy Paul, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Sebastian Korda, and Tallon Griekspoor ensuring depth and competitiveness.
On the ATP side, the total prize pool for the 2026 Adelaide International stands at $700,045, reflecting a 2.93 percent increase compared to last season. Beyond serving as valuable preparation for the Australian Open, the men’s singles champion will earn $106,490 (approximately ₹8.85 crore), which is 2.9 percent higher than the amount Felix Auger-Aliassime received for lifting the title last year.
On the women’s side, Adelaide features as a WTA 500 tournament, with a significantly enhanced prize purse. The total prize money for the event is $1,206,446 (around ₹100.2 crore), marking a substantial 13.33 percent rise from the previous edition.
Overall, the enhanced prize structure underlines the tournament’s growing stature on the ATP calendar, rewarding deep runs while reinforcing Adelaide Open’s position as a financially competitive stop early in the season.
