While each player will take home an exciting twist, the winner of the 124th US Open will win a record major championship worth $4.3 million.

This is the second-largest prize money for the winner of 2024, behind only the $4.5 million that Scottie Scheffler earned for winning The Players Championship. The first finishers at featured events on the PGA Tour receive $4 million, while Scheffler received $3.6 million at the Masters and Xander Schauffele took home $3.3 million at the PGA Championship.

Golfers who just came close to lifting the US Open Championship Trophy on Sunday will still be handsomely rewarded as the top four players will all reach seven figures when the competition ends. Everyone in the top 10 will take home at least $500,000, and everyone in the top 20 will take home about $250,000.

Players who missed their chance — like Tiger Woods, who lamented his score this week at Pinehurst — won’t go home empty-handed either, as the USGA will once again award $10,000 to those who qualify for the championship.

Bryson DeChambeau will have a three-shot lead going into the final round on Sunday, although there are plenty of strong contenders right behind him, namely Rory McIlroy and Patrick Cantlay, who will play together in the penultimate match. last of the day.
