Alex De Minaur’s Alexander Zverev Win Delivers Seven-Figure Payday As Carlos Alcaraz & Ben Shelton Miss Out

While everyone was after the big titles, Alex de Minaur has been quietly attending ATP 500 tournaments throughout the year. On Halloween night in Vienna, that choice paid him more than a million dollars, and it came with the scalp of the man who takes over as world No. 1 on Monday. The ATP 500 Bonus Pool is the reward for the players who come to the events at the 500 level instead of just doing a few to fill up their schedule.
