Overview
- Carlos Alcaraz’s Masters/Finals bonus was cut from a reported £3.6m to about £1.8m after two missed Masters 1000 events counted against him.
- Jannik Sinner receives no Masters/Finals bonus after four missed Masters 1000 tournaments triggered a 100% reduction under the rule.
- The policy reduces a player’s bonus by 25% for each missed Masters 1000 event up to three, with a full forfeiture from a fourth absence onward.
- Alcaraz’s withdrawals were from the Canada Open and the Shanghai Masters, while his Madrid Open absence did not count because he fulfilled in‑tournament obligations.
- Reports describe the bonus pool as a multi‑million fund distributed to the top performers at Masters 1000 events and the ATP Finals, with some outlets also citing a separate ATP 500 bonus that Alcaraz topped.
