The 2023 Miami Open women's singles final took place on Saturday, with Petra Kvitova downing Elena Rybakina to win her first title at the tournament and take home a paycheque of over $1.2 million.
With Rybakina in pursuit of the Sunshine Double, the Czech was the underdog in the fixture. However, she needed only two sets to stun the Kazakh, winning 7-6(14), 6-2 to lift her ninth WTA 1000 trophy.
The overall prize money pool for the Miami Open is $8,800,000 each on the men's and women's side, with both the WTA and the ATP Tour offering equal pay. Winner Kvitova will earn $1,262,220 for her efforts, while runner-up Rybakina will walk away $662,360 richer. In terms of ranking points, the former will add 1,000 points to her tally, while the latter receives 600 points for her showing in Miami.
The losing semifinalists, Sorana Cirstea and Jessica Pegula, have made $352,635 each from the WTA 1000 tournament, while the four losing quarterfinals - Martina Trevisan, Ekaterina Alexandrova, Aryna Sabalenka, and Anastasia Potapova - have earned $184,465 for their results.
Cirstea and Pegula earned 390 ranking points from the Miami Open, while Potapova, Sabalenka, Trevisan and Alexandrova received 215 ranking points from the tournament.
