The U.S. Men's Clay Court Championship takes place in Houston and is the only ATP Tour event contested on clay in the United States. It is currently called the Fayez Sarofim & Co. U.S. Men's Clay Court Championship for sponsorship reasons.
The tournament began life in 1910, was first held in Omaha and moved frequently before settling at the River Oaks Country Club in 2001.
As you can imagine, the prize money has risen significantly since then and for 2022 the total prize money on offer in Houston is $594,950, a rise of 1.9% from 2019. The event was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the ‘pandemic'.
The champion in Houston will take home $90,495, a 10% decrease compared to the amount Cristian Garin received when he won the title two years ago.
The earlier rounds however see a small increase vs 2019, for example, first-round losers pick up $6,380, up 8.5%.
You can see a full breakdown of the 2022 Fayez Sarofim & Co. U.S. Men's Clay Court Championship prize money in the table below. A percentage change is also provided to compare with last season.
