BNL d’Italia International Prize Money 2026: After a first half of the season that has already rewritten several hierarchies, the ATP Tour now lands in the evocative setting of the Foro Italico for one of the most iconic events of the spring. The third Masters 1000 on clay brings with it the charm and history of Rome, a key stage in the build-up to Roland Garros, with the best players ready to compete for the title in the capital.
The moment remains red-hot, especially for Jannik Sinner, a true dominator of this start to 2026. The Italian continued an extraordinary 2025, winning five consecutive Masters 1000 titles, including the first four of the 2026 season. No one had ever achieved this feat, not even the Big Three. Obviously, his presence in Rome inevitably shines a spotlight on a tournament that, due to its prestige and tradition, represents much more than a simple intermediate stage. And with the injury-related absence of Carlos Alcaraz, the Roman crown has never been so close.
But the Internazionali BNL d’Italia is not only the most important technical test in the run-up to the Parisian Grand Slam, but also one of the most significant events from a financial standpoint on the entire circuit. The prize money continues to grow year after year, cementing the tournament as one of the most coveted among non-Grand Slams, thanks in part to its nature as a combined event, featuring the simultaneous participation of the ATP and WTA circuits.
From a historical perspective, Roma represents a true institution: founded in 1930 in Milan and moved to the capital in 1935, the tournament has spanned eras and generations, becoming one of the most anticipated events for fans and players today. And 2026 also marks the 50th anniversary of the last great feat of an Italian tennis player, Adriano Panatta, who later also won in Paris. Could this bode well for the South Tyrolean?
Roma confirms its growth: prize money increases
For 2026, the Roman tournament is also strengthening its economic clout. The prize money for the men’s circuit has seen a increase of 2.24% compared to the previous edition, in line with the constant growth of major ATP events.
In detail, the ATP total prize money exceeds €8.2 million, standing at €8,235,540. This figure confirms the strength and attractiveness of the Internationals, capable of maintaining extremely high standards both sportingly and financially.
At the same time, the women’s tournament is also experiencing significant growth: the WTA circuit has seen an even more marked increase, exceeding 20%, a sign of increasingly significant investment in the combined aspect of the event.
In recent years, the evolution has been evident and continuous (even considering ticket prices and related activities), consolidating Rome as one of the key hubs of the clay court season, second only to the Gran Via.
