$500,000 according to this piece as per Marseille Open Tournament Director Jean-Francois Caujolle, who tried to bring the German player in the French tournament. And that was multiple years ago. I'm sure it varies from tournament to tournament as well.

ATP H2H: 2-2 tied
H2H on the clay: 1-0 for Sascha
Battle Ultron vs. Zod, Chapter 5
First confrontation at the Grand Slam level between Ultron (world number one and ATG player) and Zod (leader of Next Gen). Will Ultron continue successfully to reach on the way for its second NCYGS, or will Zod...
Only previous mutual match: 2019 Barcelona 2R, Jarry won 3:6, 7:5, 7:6(5)
This year, Sascha does not show convincing performance on the courts. Jarry looks good in Geneva, hasn't lost a set in previous matches. I predict that Jarry will win today, how do you see it?
Sascha's draw:
1R - Millman
2R - Ymer/Rola
3R - Lajovic
4R - Fognini/Bautista
QF - Djokovic/Coric
SF - Thiem/del Potro/Monfils
F - Nadal/Federer/Tsitsipas/Nishikori
Will Sascha reach a confrontation with Ultron in QF, or will he lost again in first week of GS tournaments?
Possibly the last match for the Gladiator David Ferrer, who will again play Zverev for a 3rd and last time in 2019. Sascha leads 4-3 the H2H, but lost the last match in Miami 2019. We'll see how healthy is Ferru after today's match against long time friend Roberto Bautista.
Match is on Manolo...
ATP H2H and H2H on HC: 3-3 tied
Last mutual match: 2018 Miami 4R, Zverev won 6:4, 6:4
The first final clash of this rivalry. Zverev will strive for profit the 11th ATP singles title, Kyrgios about 5th ATP singles triumph.
His serve has improved a lot.
Yesterday : 18 aces to Isner's 10. If you think that's because Isner isn't a good returner, Zverev's first serve had more average speed too.
Today : 7 aces to Federer's 3. 134mph average speed.
I think he is there.
Isner
Karlovic
Raonic
Zverev
Both players somehow still have a chance to qualify, Zverev with a win is automatically qualified in the SF, while Isner must win in 2 and wait a straight sets win from Djokovic to reach the SF. This match will start at 14:00 London time. The H2H is 4-1 in favour of Sascha, but Isner won their...
Okay, this is yet another Laver Cup thread, and I realize that LC is just an exhibition.
But given that there is some pressure to win when teammates are counting on you, do you think Zverev's win yesterday will give him a confidence boost in slam tournaments? Don't laugh...well, you can.
