2024 Tour Championship: The Big Payouts and Who’s Earning What

The 2024 PGA Tour season is coming to an exciting end with the Tour Championship at East Lake. This tournament isn’t just about winning a trophy—it’s about the incredible $100 million prize money on the line. Let’s break down what each of the 30 players who made it to the final round will earn.
The winner of this year’s Tour Championship will take home a massive $25 million. That’s a huge jump from last year when the winner earned $18 million. Even if a player doesn’t win, there’s still a lot of money to be made. The second-place finisher will earn $12.5 million, while third place will get $7.5 million.
The Tour Championship uses a special system where players start with different scores depending on their rankings. For example, Scottie Scheffler, who was the top-ranked player going into the tournament, started at 10 under par, giving him a head start over the other players. This system adds extra excitement and strategy to the event.
