A Major winner earns €47,250 per player — 3.2× more than a P2 winner at €15,000

The prize money gap between tiers is significant. Even early exits at Majors pay well: a Round of 32 exit at a Major (€2,953) nearly matches a P2 quarter-final (€3,000) and beats a P2 semi-final for women (€2,550). The top players prioritise Majors for a reason.
