The biggest prize fund in professional golf is at stake this week as the 2024 Tour Championship begins at East Lake Golf Club. With the top 30 players from the PGA Tour vying for a share of the $100 million FedEx Cup — up $25 million from last year — competitors will have the chance to see some staggering sums roll into their accounts over the weekend.
The special events and the first two playoff events have a total prize pool of $20 million, $5 million less than what this week’s eventual winner will take home. Up $7 million from the previous two seasons, the winner’s prize is the largest in PGA Tour history and up $10 million from 2019, the first year of the staggered start format.
Scottie Scheffler is the only man to surpass $25 million in earnings this season, winning the Masters, Players Championship and four majors — six of the biggest paydays of the year. Xander Schauffele has nearly cut his paycheck to $20 million with two major wins, while Hideki Matsuyama, Wyndham Clark and Rory McIlroy are all on track to earn more than eight figures by 2024.
A top-five finish will guarantee a player at least $5 million in pay, while those in the top 12 will see seven figures next to their names. Everyone in the field will earn at least half a million dollars for qualifying for the Tour Championship.
Let’s take a look at the prize money list for the 30 golfers who will compete in the 2024 Tour Championship. The remaining 120 golfers in the FedEx Cup standings will split the remaining $17.05 million.
