The Erste Bank Open, played each year in late October alongside the Swiss Indoors just across the border, often draws a quality field of players who are bidding to grab 500 ranking points and snap up the remaining places at the ATP Finals.
As well as the ranking points that could get a player into the season-ending championships, the prize money on offer is an equally attractive proposition.
However, given 2020 hasn't gone quite as planned, the total prize money on offer in Vienna is €1,409,510 which is a 38.6% drop when compared to 2019.
The winner of this years Vienna trophy will take home a cheque for €105,240 which while still a sizeable six-figure payday, represents a -77.8% reduction on what Dominic Thiem received last year.
Those drops are mirrored for most of the draw, except for the early round losers where the ATP has mandated that players hit hardest by the hiatus of the tour due to COVID, have a chance to finally earn some cash this financial year.
First-round losers will receive €18,095 which is up 3.6% compared to last year. Qualifying losers are also on the receiving end of a pay bump, with €4,580 for first-round qualifying losers and €8,245 for final round qualifying losers. A rise of 36.3% and 22.8% respectively.
The total prize money for the 2020 Erste Bank Open in Vienna can be found below along with the history from 2002 to the present day.
